Default Cheapest all grain batch ever brewed?

What's the cheapest batch ever brewed? I don't really count growing/malting your own grain, but list it if you know how much it costs ya.

My cheapest was ~$30 for 10 gallons of an oatmeal stout I did 3 weeks ago. That price includes yeast and hops.

Who else?

I did an APA last fall that was right around 26 dollars for 10 gallons. Bulk grain, washed yeast, and homegrown hops.

$9 for a 10 gallon AG Irish Red. Reason it was so cheap was it was my 10 purchase from the LHBS and they took the total amount I had spent in the previous purchases, added it up, and gave me 20% of that total off of my purchase. That was a good day.
