4wheel parts usually have a buy3 get one free thingy every now and
then. Haven't looked at the latest sales flyer.
http://www.shockwarehouse.com has them for $73 but right now that's
the best I can find... :/

Froogle isn't doing much better.
<http://froogle.google.com/froogle?btnG=Search+Froogle&q=edelbrock+IAS+grand+ cherokee&show=dd&scoring=p>

Actually 4wheelparts.com has the Pro Comp ES3000 (4 shocks)
on sale with a stabilizer for $135.99 Don't have any experience
with them though.

Go down to your local 4wheelparts store [or hit their website] and
get on their adventure mag/advert list. Every now and then they
run the IAS and/or a coupla the Ranchos on a 4 for price of 3 sale.

I ran Bilstein's with my '96 ZJ and the ride was extra stiff... off-road
was even worse at slower speeds. You really had to push the Jeep in
order to over-come the stiffness.

I was running Edlebrock IAS shocks on my '98 XJ, very soft. It felt
like it was bottoming out a lot. When I put a lift on just recently I
went with Rancho RS9000's and have no complaints with those.

You can dial in stiff or soft whenever you want and now that they run
around $100 a shock, they are a pretty good deal...
