Digital Thermometer for Bar Fridge

Does anyone know where I can get a cheap one for my mini-fridge? Here are my requirements.

a) Must stick onto glass. Either a suction cup (preferred) or room for double-sided tape. Glass doors ftw!
b) Display must be digital ie no dials.
c) Display shows Temperature only. I don't care about the time or the humidity. In fact, I'd rather it didn't have either of those.
d) Cheap ie $10 is too much for a stupid thermometer.
e) Decimal place would be nice eg 2.4C instead of 2C but not mandatory.

Places I have tried and failed right now.
Dollar shops in Richmond Centre, Lansdowne Mall
Superstore
Jysk
Zellers
Bay
Sears
Home Depot
The Source
Wal-Mart - they had 1 but there's no backing on the display itself so it's useless; I can't see the numbers when looking into a dark fridge..
Canadian Tire - they had 1 for $10 but it also shows humidity, and is too big.

Thanks guys!

^ I went to London Drugs @ 42nd + East Boulevard. The only models they had were this National Geographic ones. 1 had that unreflective backing, and the 2nd has buttons in front, and also cost $10 ie way too much.

Any other suggestions?

you can try specialty stores that specifically sold wine/beer. they could have some supplies, but they may be a bit more pricey.
