Default Economical substitute for DD-X?

I've not been very exciting with using different films and developers. I've only ever used DD-X and nearly only HP5

This has, however, given me good consistency and my negatives are becoming simpler to print.

So, is there a developer out there that is as good as DD-X? I have two dev tanks, so 500ml does me 2 rolls of 120 then I ditch it. I have only recently got my second tank, so I developed hundreds of single rolls with DD-X at 1:4 before ditching.

This, as you rightly thought, is expensive. £2.40 a roll in fact. Now £1.20 a roll with 2 tanks which isn't so bad.

Just been on Silverprint and they stock many types - thought I's ask the knowledgeable among here rather than sifting through google for hours.

Cheers!
