Look for gymastic supply companies or track-and-field suppliers.  Sometimes you can find used high-jump or pole-vault practice pits for sale.  You don't need the covers, so don't worry about re-covering them.

im all down for airpit but I need one about 12x12x6
That's a very low price!   Half of what some other sites are quoting.  What's the shipping like from New Mexico?

I just found another seller from http://www.austinfoampitcubes.com/

8x8 cubes are $1.64 ea

if I can just find a seller for $1 buck like before that would be the best..
