You USED to be able to get 1000 ft for $50, but not anymore. Now it's closer to $70. Home Depot's prices on bulk cable aren't bad. PC Club has some as well, but they have limited quantity compared to Home Depot. As far as connectors and jacks, stay away from Home Depot as they are kind of pricey. I usually buy them online or from C.E.D. or Codale. Same with the networking tools: online or wholesalers.
