Are you looking for affordable food or rabbit food that will keep the rabbit healthy? If you purchase hay, either from a nearby rabbit rescue, feed store, or pet supply store, that hay will cover most of your needs. Rabbits need unlimited timothy hay and a variety of green, leafy vegetables. you can add a small handful of pellets daily as a vitamin/mineral supplement and treat, but it is not needed. If you choose to feed too many pellets and no hay, you're rabbit is bound to develop teeth problems such as abscesses and sores from molar overgrowth. Visit my article on Webvet.com at http://tinyurl.com/rabbitdiet
or House Rabbit Society at www.rabbit.org for more information and a listing of rabbit rescues near you. Also, if you are unable to use an entire bale of hay at once, which is often the least expensive, you might be able to find other rabbit parents online through bunspace.com who will share a bale with you, thus saving all of you money.

If you're looking for smaller quantities - enough to feed one or two rabbits for a couple of weeks, that is - Walmart sells different-sized bags for very-reasonable prices. My location sells two sizes. The large is about six dollars and feeds my sister's pet rabbit for at least two weeks, if not closer to three. That's cheaper than the pet-store prices around here, and the rabbit really likes the food, so we don't have any complaints.

However, buying in large quantities tends to save you money because that's cheaper, per pound, than buying the smaller bags. If you have room to store a giant sack of food, I'd suggest finding a feed store or farm and ranch supply. They sell fifty-pound bags of rabbit pellets, which are typically bought by those who breed lots of rabbits for food or whatever. However, the food obviously feeds pet rabbits just the same, so it works out provided that you have storage space. Where I live, these giant bags cost less than ten dollars, so it's a really-good deal.
