The standards cost money because ISO has to raise money somehow.

However, the draft standards are available for free, and usually the 
final draft is virtually identical to the final version.  The last C11 
draft is known as N1570 - you can quickly find it with google, and 
download it for free (perfectly legally).  Drafts like that are what 
most people use for C (and C++) standards.
