Yeah, thats the good thing about .22 ammunition... Its so cheap. You can go get little milk cartons of cheap .22 for a few bucks--thats like 1000 rounds.

Many people dont realize how expensive ammunition is. Most rounds are about $1 a pop--that adds up fast if you are going to the range, or practicing, or whatever. If you buy a gun that fires current military caliber ammunition, like a .223 or a 7.62mm, you can sometimes get cheap ammunition, about $.50 a pop--but thats still not something to plink with.
