Wow.. I haven't had to buy any SD Cards in a couple of years now but
I've bought 8gig SD cards for what would be about 5.7 Euros.

A quick look at Walmart Canada Online shows 64 gig cards on at
(converted) 10.76 Euros and 128 gigs for 17 Euros. There's even
a 10 pack of 32 gig ones on at 108 Euros and a super deal pack
of ten 256 gig cards for only 78.75 Euros so, unless you are
getting something totally different I'm not sure why your prices
seem to be so high.

All that said, there are some wild price swings for different
makes or through different suppliers TO Walmart so it looks
like they can cost almost anything..

(i.e..   One Sandisk 128 gig for 117.7 Euros)
