Amazon has it for 79.99 through them with free shipping or you can
buy it thru the market place for a few dollars less but pay for
shipping (and pay more) - I'd recommend just using Amazon. The family
pack is 139.99 but in that case the alternates may be better choices.
 From Amazon.com just type in .Mac in the search bar. I may do my
renewal there this year.

I usually just use PriceGrabber.com and search for MA361Z/A. That's
how I managed to find the $40 deals months ago. I haven't seen any
deals close to those lately. Right now, the best deal the site
currently lists is $74, shipping included. Amazon and B&H seem to
have the best regular price at about $80.

Another good source of a less expensive .Mac membership, at least
here, is through a Mac user group. The Apple Store will give a
discount to user group members, and last year the cost was only $75.

Keep an eye on MegaMacs.com. A month or two ago I bought a *family* renewal for $85 from them. I don't know if they regularly offer specials like that, but I know for sure they had one at least once.

Try eBay as well - your mileage may vary but I got a .Mac renewal for about $65 several months ago; this was the cheapest option I could find at the time.
