Is this what you guys call cheap?

Compared to earlier, no.
Compared to next month or next year, yes.
I would buy all I could afford at that price and take out a second mortgage to buy more.
My last purchase was online for 56 boxes, 40 boxes 9mm @7.49, 4 boxes .40S&W @ 9.49, and 12/50rd boxes .357 Mag @ 12.40.

Kewl, well I cleaned them out of .45.
I felt so bad for the 80 something year old guy who had to pull them all out of the case, they were on the very bottom at the very back. I offered to help, but he said he needed the excercise to keep his heart running smooth, lol
Anyway, so I have about 3000 each of 9 and 45 on hand, think that's enough for a month or so? :-) Been shooting about 750 a week now lately.

That's as cheap as I've found 45 ammo.
Just curious about your signature. Is there something wrong with your C-TAC?

It pokes into my love handles. It downright hurts... JB is going to replace it with an FBI paddle. If I don't like that, I get one of the first super secret new ones that are not available yet! :-)
Do they send everyone candy when they order, or do they just like me?

I reload my ammo now. Still hard to beat the 9mm price though. On 45, I am doing about 13c/rd.
