I guess it depends on how much you brew, and as RC0032 said there's the issue of force carbing. I got (I think) 11-12 commercial kegs out of my 5# tank. This was just pushing the beer out, didn't include carbing them as well. I haven't been keeping too close an eye on it, but I think I get something like 6 or 7 kegs of homebrew force carbed and served.

At most of the places in town, the mandatory hazmat fees for filling a 5# tank cost as much as the co2 does. I just got my hands on a 10# a couple weeks ago, hopefully I'll be able to spread those costs out a little bit
