Where to buy S76 and seed with low shipping?

Where should I buy products like S76, spray millet and seed for gouldian finches that don't have such high shipping costs? Thanks.

I buy fresh millet sprays and seeds at the local feed store. The prices there are much cheaper than pet stores. You may want to see if there's a feed store near you.

I do have a farm feed supply store and their seed has food coloring in it. They also don't sell S76. The online price for shipping is $14 and that seems real high. There must be an online store that is less than that!

http://www.birdproduct.com has free shipping on select brands of food, totally worth it if you're going to buy large bags of seed. This assumes your finches like that brand, but since my owl finches came from David Calvin birdproduct.com they really seemed to love it.

http://www.ladygouldian.com and/or http://www.ladygouldianfinch.com both sell s76 and charge by the weight of the package I believe.

All three of the sites sell spray millet, but I'm not sure how competitive the pricing is on their millet.

I am looking at free shipping via Amazon Prime on several brands of 25 pound boxes of millet. Don't know if it will pan out but I will let you know if something looks good.
