Woot.com has the Philips SHN2500 Noise Cancelling Earphones for $8 + $5 shipping = $13 shipped. Yes these are "active" noise cancellation headphones, not simply earplugs that block outside noise (although it appears they do that as well). [Compare]

#1: Price includes shipping, and no additional shipping charge for more -- Two are $21, three are $29.
That said, I really prefer noise-isolating headphones, over noise-canceling headphones. No annoying almost-in-phase artifacts, simple technology, it works.

These are powered and work effectively. The only problem is that the power pack is located in a very inconvenient location along the cord. These are very good for the price if you don't plan on moving at all (ie. on a plane flight) but very annoying if you plan on using these when, say, walking or exercising.
