Default cheapest place to find insulation

I am wanting to insulate my 30x30 shop with 2x4 walls on 2 foot
centers. Is there an online source for insulation or is Lowes or home
depot the cheapest place to go. Money is getting tight. I can use r13
or r-19. I live in Kentucky. The winters get cold but it is not like
some of you guys up north. And this is a garage/hobby shop not a place
of business.

Any suggestions? I have done a search and found unfaced r-19 for 30
bucks for 75 square feet but if I am figuring right that comes up to
600 bucks.


Just shop locally. Put an ad WANTED, CASH ON DELIVERY, and you may just get
a real deal on some that was "left over from a job." Make sure it's
delivered, and you don't pick it up on any jobsite. If someone has an
abundance of it, you may get it and get it installed for what you would pay
for it at the Borg. I hate hanging insulation.
