Looks like Aussie prices are pretty good as well, British prices for decent balls are a lot more , examples below

Suspect the Walmart ones are, well, what you might expect from Walmart...

Went in the local Sports Direct, as a survey of what you could just pick up on the 'high street'
Here are some of that they had available
All prices are per calculated to per ball, as pack and can sizes vary. USD in rates are as advised on xe.com at time of inquiry

You can bulk order 144 tubes at once to get considerable discounts on most of these balls

I suspect the Babloat RG balls are expensive in the UK as there are very few clay courts on which to employ them. Therefore demand is probably comparatively scarce.
On the continent, with many more courts being proportionately clay, they would possibly be amongst the cheaper alternatives, with the Wimbledon grass court ball perhaps being the type with the premium.

Wow, remind me to go into Sports Direct versus the internet search I did then!
