[http://wiki.london.hackspace.org.uk/w/images/a/af/DIYbio_Collaboration_protocols.pdf Here] is the protocol we used with UCL to grow competent cells during the making of the public biobrick. So we need to get E. coli (cannot find how to buy this yet), [http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/fluka/l3152?lang=en&region=GB LB] - £66, [http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/sigma/21115?lang=en&region=GB 0.1M CaCl2] - £32.50, [http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/SIGMA/M6030?lang=en&region=GB M9 salts] - £57.60, [http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/sigma/m3409?lang=en&region=GB MgSO4] - £20, [http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/sigma/l2025?lang=en&region=GB bacteriological agar solution] - £42.90, [http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/sial/t4625?lang=en&region=GB thiamine] - ~£20, [http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/sigma/g8769?lang=en&region=GB D glucose] - ~£20, and plates. All links are only the first ones I found, maybe cheaper options available.
