Define "cheap". I just had 2 buckets delivered from Drs Foster and Smith (along with some other stuff) and it was $32/bucket. I think shipping was $18 for everything I got. DFS charges shipping by order $$$ - not by weight.

If you have a PetSmart near you, get a DFS catalog and they price match in-store.

I usually order 3 or 4 buckets at a time from DFS and they get me for about 10-15 bucks shipping even if I throw a few more items on the order.
