If you find a source that's cheap, let me know, as I have the same problem. 
I went and purchased same outright. I seem to have found the best deal at 
the time at http://www.computergiants.com/ although that was some time ago.

I suspect that as a cleaning tape is a consumable item and only lasts for x 
(20?) cleaning cycles, you may just have to buy one. Seems like they run 
about fiddy bucks here in the US. I have a Maxell DLT Cleaning Tape III, 
which I use for my DLT IV drives.
