Whats my options for getting a USB miner that I plan to run using my raspberry pi?

I have a rather small budget of about £20 ($32-33 USD) also looking to buy from UK!

Many Thanks

You should be able to purchase near 1GH/s across three ASICMiner USB sticks with your budget.

Do you know where I could get 3 of these for around my budget from the UK? I can only find them for £12 each.

Also any USB options which are cheap and can do scrypt so I could mine devcoins?

Thanks

ive seen 2/$10 on ebay if not 3/$10. but you will never make a profit, probably less than 1/3rd of what you pay
24" PCI-E cables with 16AWG wires and stripped ends - great for server PSU mods, best prices https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=563461
