I need a good, cheap digital camera. I always lose stuff so I'm trying to max my quality while still being on the cheap side, so if I lose it, it's no biggie.

Any suggestions?

Thank you very much.
I could recommend Cannon PS IS S1 for under $300 or S2 for under $500. I don't know if it's cheap enough.

Let's say under $150 or $200.

It's mostly going to be used to take random drunk pics so I don't need anything great and also don't want it to ruin my night if I lose it.

What type of existing memory cards do you have if any?

With that camera, can you give me a ballpark ratio of photo per MB of memory?

Just over 2mb/pic so you're looking at 230 or so per 512mb card.
