I found a ProLite Regular size 20X72X1 16 oz at Gander Mountain today in Ocala, Fl for $40 plus tax.
It was on a half price table. There were 4 left after I got mine. The small size was $25 and I think there were about 6 of those left.

Just out of curiosity: are those Prolite 5 or something? I have Prolite 4 regular. It is orange and weighs over 25 oz (after 2-3 years). This reddish one on sale is supposedly 2/3 the weight.

The ProLite 4 is a 4 season pad that weighs 24oz regular size
The ProLite 3 is a 3 season pad that weighs 20 oz regular size

The current ProLite Plus is a 4 season pad that weights 24 oz (regular size)but has a better R rating than the 4
The current Prolite in the add above has a slightly less R rating than the 3 but is 4 oz lighter. (regular size)

Thank you, moytoy. I had not realized 4 referred to 4-season; I bought it because it felt relatively comfortable. So I guess they have not gotten any lighter. I know neoair and some other things are lighter, but they seem less comfortable.
