Jody,

I made my own wheels for less than $20.  I used 7" wheels from the local hardware store, a hollow aluminum rod, some cotter pins and U-clamps and some of the blue closed cell foam that is used in packing computers.  I can pull the cotter pins out and take the whole thing apart.  For soft sand, inflatable wheels are available at about $10 each instead of the $4 my wheels cost.
