So where do you all find the best deal on bulk Cat 5, 5e, and 6 cabling? I usually buy a box or two at Lowes/Home Depot, but surely there's a cheaper place out there. Any ideas?

Those of us who are commercial contractors purchase our supplies from wholesale distributors. Our distributors require a resale license and Tax ID to purchase from them.

That's fine, I have tax id and license. I just completed my first year 'contracting' myself after having been laid off from Avaya. I still learning the 'business' side of working for myself and really just need a list of good distributors.

This thread should be in "Installers" and not in the open forum...

Cheap cable might not always be your best option. Pick a good brand name, one that is known in the industry, and use it. There really is a difference in cable, and it will save you time ($$$) in the long run.

Where to buy is going to vary on the quantity you buy, how often you purchase, where its being shipped from/to, the suppliers cost etc. As Dave pointed out any further discussion should be in Installers.
