Hi Alexander- You must’ve tried when gas was spiking today. If you wait until gas is low (low 20s, usually at night here in the US), you can get 5 mints off for about $5. That’s what I paid for my 5. Worked out to $1 per NFT, which is super cheap! The other way to do it is by manipulating the gas on your metamask setting. You can input a lower gas fee and it’ll just sit there as a pending transaction until gas dips, and then it’ll mint. I don’t wind up doing that a lot, but I know people that do. Of course, if the set mints out before your transaction goes through, you would not get the mint. (But, you know, these dogs aren’t exactly a viral sensation at the moment, so I’m sure there is a lot of time. I’d wait for gas to dip and then snag 5. I’m using an ERC721A contract here, btw, which is just about the most gas-optimized contract there is (aside from really, really nit-picking the contract for very minimal improvements). The cool thing with these ERC721A contracts, of course, is that you can get multiples for essentially one gas cost. So, to get 5 on an ERC721, you’d pay 5x the gas. To get 5 on this contract, you only pay a small bit more than 1x gas. So it’s super optimized already. :-)
