10 gallons are so cheap because there is little material involved, the glass doesn't need to be thick, and they are a popular tanks size. Almost everyone just starting out buys a 10g.
$35 for a 20g tank is a pretty decent price in my area. a 20g LONG around here is $45 new.
Start checking garages sales and thrift shops (I know, I say this a lot...huh?) but you can get some GREAT deals. I stopped at a garage sale today that had two 20g tanks for $5 each. My last tank (30g was $14 used, like new).
