Go here, I assent to that it is the cheapest place you can get dog beds:
http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/pet_supplies.cfm?c=3307+1
well drfosters.com or even petsmart, petco or walmart
Petsmart is a bit on the extravagant side. How large is your dog, what breed is it?
I have seen at Walmart they have rather large dog beds for $39. Oval shaped with the sides on it. Also Walgreens, if there is one in your area, has large ones for $10 and i'm told extra large ones for $20.

Yes some of them are over $80 for the smallest dimensions, but they range in price.
You'll have to pay for shipping, but the one we have has lasted forever.
COSTCO. granted you privation a member ship but they have HUGEEEE pet bed for like $18. Otherwise overstock.com has some pretty good deals too.
Let them all log a few zees Z's with you in your bed! Save some money!
