Default Anyone know of a cheaper GPS product?

I have Foreflight on my IPad mini. I was thinking of getting a BadElf GPS to pair with my IPad (my current IPad doesn't have GPS). The cheapest BadElf I could find is running about $129. Does anyone know of cheaper products that work just as well?

Thanks.

May or may not help, but why not build a Stratux box for around $150 and get GPS AND ADS-B AND Weather?

Dual Electronics makes a Bluetooth GPS box for $85. Works great with Ipad and Foreflight. About the size of a hockey puck. Battery lasts about 6-8 hours.
