This silicone rubber hose is about
a dollar a foot at McMaster Carr but it is about the best you can
buy.

Paul Lamar

Paul, the only silicone hose I found is:
5296K37
Silicone Rubber Coolant Hose 1-1/2" ID, 1-53/64" OD, 125 Psi, Blue, 3'
Length
$ 38.44 Each

Which hose is $1 a foot as you said?
Bulent

Right that's it. I made a mistake on the price.

Paul and Bulent,

The price at McMaster Carr works out to about a buck an inch. I've not found anything cheaper (but am interested if others have found less expensive vendors).
However, I have found a source where you don't have to buy so much:

You pay more like $2.50 an inch but you have less scrap.
