Where can I find women's waterproof wind pants for under $50?

While living in rainy parts of the country I have found out the difference between waterproof and water resistant. I have been able to find waterproof breathable jackets, but finding waterproof wind pants has been hit and miss at best. I would appreciate any leads you can give me. And please, no rubber or nonbreathable raingear... I need these for working out in the rain :)

These pants look nice, and they're on sale for $46 (regularly 75.95). Plus, they're black so they would coordinate with lots of different things.

Sierra Designs Isotope pants:

Description:
The featherweight-but-waterproof-breathable pant to accompany our jacket, the Isotope. Fourteen-inch ankle zippers offer Velcro closures. The elastic waist has an adjustable drawcord hem to accommodate layers and facilitate on-off. The Isotope Pant has a performance fit, making sure they won't flap in the wind or bunch up when running or cycling. We use a slightly heavier nylon ripstop than the jacket, ensuring long life and proper function in these waterproof-breathable pants.

The first two pants match what I'm looking for, the third pant is water-resistant not waterproof... though I love the pant and price, I really want the water proof. We got caught in a wind and rain storm a couple of years ago and the wind blew the rain right through water resistant gear. And without the taped seams it also leaked through the pockets and seams. We might as well jumped in a pool by the time we got back to the house. It really was that bad! Thanks for looking!
