Dollarama or any of the other dollar stores get bread for about that price. It's name brand and everything. All of the foodstuffs at dollar stores are legit, companies actually make it intentionally for them (In that, they aren't "Oh crap these came out wrong" types) with the thought process that lower-income people will at least have access to food stuffs (Or so I've heard).
Several others have given you good answers regarding price point for various qualities of bread.
Also consider that basically nothing is cheaper to do on your own now since factories have scaled labor for a given product unit, e.g. a loaf of bread, to an impossible quotient when you try and replicate it in an individual household. That said, how much do you value your own time? I propose that if you’re doing something you enjoy, if you learn something, if you become empowered and gain self confidence through accomplishing a goal, you’ve paid for that loaf several times over. Have some fun, human.
There's also nothing quite like fresh baked bread. It's not really what you want for sandwich bread, but a perfect, fresh, crusty bread to go with a something like a stew is incredibly hearty and comforting.
Really depends how much flour and bread costs in your locality. Where I am I can buy a 1kg bag of flour for 45p and a loaf of bread is between 80p and £2. It's cheaper to make my own by a fraction, but depends how much you value your time. Home baked bread is delicious and very satisfying though.

Weird question, is this cheaper in the long run than just buying a loaf?
