The cheapest one is composted horse manure that I haul away from a friend's horse ranch.

Next would be the free compost given away by the city. After having that horse ranch owner as a friend, I no longer fall in line very early for free compost.

The third one, still cheap, is the composted steer manure from Walmart. They sell from $0.86 to $0.99 per cubic ft. Home Depot sells them too, from $0.97 to $1.49 per cubic ft.

These are all superb for bananas if you have drainage.
