When did we meet last time?

Hi,

I wonder if the three variants below are all okay (and equally common)?
  • when did we last meet?
  • when did we meet last?
  • when did we meet last time?
    mus-te

I think that most people would ask "when was the last time we met?"
"When did we last meet?" and "when did we meet last?" are formal but acceptable, yet they feel unnatural to me.
"When did we meet last time?" makes no sense to me. I prefer "When did we meet?" (last time is understood).
