,doesnt matter. What can I expect to pay for these blanks. I can adjust the size if there is a price break for some particular size. Average R value width for snow country. Just need some general prices.. I always shop till I see the lowest price.
NEver shop at specialty places...

None of these sizes are "standard" sizes. 2/0-5/0 being the closest. It is possible (if you shop at a building supply place) that they *might* carry 2/0x5/0 in stock. but it's not very likely.
(windows come in any size (esp. in they are retrofit old 'old construction' windows) you can make up (within reason) If you modify your plans to accomodate a 'new construction' in stock size at your local HD (or whatever) you'll save 40-50% over ordering windows to fit. Also check the local store's special order return section. It's unlikely they'll have 10 of anything in there, but you could get lucky, and you'll pay 1/2 retail or less.
If you were to order vinyl windows in that size range, you'd probably be looking at $120-150 a piece.
new construction in stock windows in that size range (if you could find them) 'd probably be $75-90 each

Best I can suggest is your local craigslist, there are several salvage places that regularly post on my local craigslist. ...A good salvage retailer is like a good junkyard... always got something new, but the hard part is finding them!
Of course for the most part, they go through salvage inventory so fast that it's not hardly worth posting online...
Another local source (if you have one in your area) is habitat for humanity's "re"store. we have one in our area, and it's awesome.
I guess in short it's not really a good online market (salvaged building supplies), since they are so many deals, they are all cash n carry, and serviceable stuff moves fast!
Good luck!
