Super High 5 bet

I understand that the Super High 5 bet at most race tracks has a base bet of $1.00. Now if I box five horse the total cost will be $120.00. Is there any way I can bet five horses in every position with the cost coming to less than $120.00? I also understand now I would have to purchase multiple tickets.
Is this possible? It would be great if the base bet was 50 cents. Thanks in advance.

Certainly, but you won't cover every combination without a full box. The example below would have five horses in each position but leaves out some combos on the top side which cuts the price of the combined wager to $90 and gives you a chance to hit twice if the 3 wins and 2 fills the exacta.

3x3x5x5x5 = $36 (1-3/1-3/1-5/1-5/1-5)
3x4x5x5x5 = $54 (3-5/2-5/1-5/1-5/1-5)
