Which plants are cheap to buy in 6 packs? Tomatoes, peppers, and
other warm season plants to me are cheaper to buy as small seedlings
instead of starting your own.

When it cost 10 cents just for the jiffy pellet, the only reason to
start your own is if you can't buy the seedlings.

I have a monster rosemary shrub and plant cherry tomatoes and basil. Last
year the best cherry tomatoes were orange and/or yellow, but we ate all of
them and I couldn't find any seeds for orange or yellow cherries, even at
the big REAL plant store. I finally broke down and bought a 6-pack of Sweet
100s just to stay in the game. We'll get 'em next year.

Basil produces copious seeds -- one package is a lifetime investment.
