I think its roughly $30 per eye +tax per box (3 months). Maybe a little less if you can order them yourself over the internet. Not sure how that works, maybe you pay a doctor for the exam and prescription, then buy them yourself? Sometimes you get a discount for buying a year's supply.
So, maybe $250 for 2 eyes for 1 year. 4 boxes per eye, 6 contacts in each box, so 24 contacts per eye, 2 weeks each, so a little less than a year. You can try to stretch them out longer if you want, but thats up to you.
edit: this is for 2-week disposables. I have no idea how much contacts that are intended to last longer cost for a year supply. I just like having 2-week disposables because I think they are more comfortable.
