You might check your local electrical supply house or welding supply house. They might be able to do a bit better on price, but copper is expensive everywhere right now.

Agreed. I've used welding leads before. Don't forget to consider the local pawn shop to see if they have any used welding leads. They usually sell them at about whatever scrap copper price is, so you pay by the pound not the foot.
