I doubt whether there are any companies that make "cheap" survival suits.  However, you may not need to pay full list price if you can find a good used suit on ebay.

Mustang is a very high quality company. Contact the manufacturer. I have to believe they'd help.

Reelinrolly,
 Where do you live? The Buffalo NY distributers are GREAT people. It's worth a call.

I would think the cheapest survival suit you could get would be a wetsuit and a life vest or CO2 life vest to keep the bulk down under your jacket.
