Cheapest way to serve static file

I've developed a 3rd party app that I have integrated on a site that gets about 2-3 million hits per day
I'm serving the required assets (css, js and image file) from AWS Cloudfront
The costs are starting to add up, and I'm wondering the cheapest way to deliver static assets

I have a micro instance, but I'm not sure if that could handle that many requests (even though it's static content). Think it could?

Or have any recommendations on mirror cdns like cloudfront that are cheaper?

Even if you change your DNS to point to CloudFalare, if your hosting server fails to respond your site will be unavailable, so at the end of the day if your hosting server is unreliable, you won't be having much success.
