I will probably sound philosophical but it depends on what you count as cheapest. I'm reminded of the fellow that took such big steps to save his $10 shoes that he split his $20 pants. Examples: walking is cheap but you have to eat and sleep. Do you not count that? A car can cost just gas, but do you also consider the cost of owning a car at over 30 cents per mile? If you hitchhike you still have to sleep and eat for several days. If you can find a cheap airfare, you can avoid needing to buy expensive food or finding a place to sleep. But that means avoiding airport food. I would guess trains don't get you close enough on either end. A bus is probably the cheapest way if you book ahead. You will have to sleep on the bus, deal with transfers, and to save money take food with you. You can pack things like crackers, cheese and peanut butter sandwiches which will last a few days. Try http://www.greyhound.com seven day advance purchase is $99 and a bus leaves Aiken at about 7:30pm and arrives in AZ about 2 days later at 5pm. You would spend 2 nights on the bus and need 2 days of food
