I dont know how much it cost, but both walmart and kmart sell a small tank of helium. Intended for blowing up party baloons.
also, most florists have helium.

a welding supply store is your best bet. AGA/Linde is my provider of choice since I use a lot of it (1000 CF) in my blimp. I pay approx US$26 for 125 Cu. ft. of helium.
Stay way from Wal-mart it will cost you a fortune.
