Cheap Canon compatible lens hoods?

I know they exist, I am not going to pay the outrageous price Canon wants for their own little bits of plastic. I have been looking, but I cannot find anyone that I can buy from (ships to Canada). I am looking for hoods for my 18-55MM f/3.5-5.6 IS (kit lens) and 55-250mm .

Ok, never mind. Apparently I am an idiot when it comes to searching on B&H's website. I found cheaper compatible (bayonet mount, not screw in type) lens hoods. I even added one for my 50mm f/1.8.

A lot better than Canon beanded:

Pearstone PELHCES62 LHC-ES62 Lens Hood with Adapter (ES-62) $16.95

Pearstone PELHCET60 LHC-ET60 Dedicated Lens Hood (ET-60) $16.95

Pearstone PELHCEW60C LHC-EW60C Dedicated Lens Hood (EW-60C) $14.95

I might have found cheaper, but I trust B&H.

I've visited their store in NYC on a couple of occasions; quite an amazing operation.

Interesting that they remain competitively priced by offering alternative products.
