Blasting sand is probably going to be cheaper, and it's definitely sharp. Road or highway sand is probably the cheapest and most coarse sand you'll be able to find, short of the Great Sand Dunes in CO. You might also try a landscaping supply company, but you'll probably have to get it by the ton or something.
