Ty13:
Where in Canada are you? Our local PetSmart sells them at 9 or 10 cents each, depending on size. As others have pointed out, 29 cents is way out of line.
There are some online sources given in some of the threads in the Canada forum on this board. Th thread I was thinking of is old, but most suppliers should still be around: http://www.beardeddragon.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=57&t=41994
Also... do you have access to an exotic pet store, either locally or nearby? They often fall off the radar when those considering their first reptile are considering pet stores. We have two locally and both offer the opportunity to buy crickets in bulk quantities (i.e. boxes of 500 to 1000). Prices on a per-cricket basis are perhaps slightly more than online, but the lack of shipping charges and usual same-day availability make them a bit cheaper in total than online (for me anyway), and much more convenient.
