First off, speak for yourself, your printer, and your printing skills if
your 4x6 print quality is "bad." ;-)
Second, at apx $.26 for a sheet of 8.5x11 paper, there is no way in hell
that a $1.40 print can be cheaper.

I never like inkjet, the quality is BAD for small print, there is no
details, for 8x10 or over that is ok. I have my digital file output at
Fuji Frontier lab at $0.11 per 4x6 print, much higher resolution
although it is still lower than optical print. Even output a 8x12 is
only $1.4, I bet it is cheaper than inkjet.
