Men are like a fine wine. They start out as grapes, and it's up to women to stomp the crap out of them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with.
being at a similar point a few months back, I would say that the cost of the class + or - a few hundred is irrelevant and not worth finding a bargain. use a reputable instructor you can relate to and understand and respect enought to do as they say and pay them what they are asking. there are plenty of ways to die in tech gear. do you really want to be the one that dies due to saving $100.00 besided that is only about 1-2% of the total cost. and if the instructor is charging more than someone in another city or state are you really going to travel there for 100? My instructor is currently charging about 700 (includes hotel room and all dives). Now you may be asking because you are a TDI instructor and wondering the going rate in that case NVM.
And the moral of the story is ... beware of scuba divers wearing only one shoe.

Instead of spending all this time trying to solve a non existing problem, why not work at being smarter divers, don't do stupid stuff at the lakes and the boats will have a much harder time hitting you. (AZTEK DIVER)
I did a triple combo of Adv Nitrox, Deco Proc and Extended Range for about $1200, but highly unusually, that included rental gear so I didn't have to buy all the kit, which made it by far the cheapest option.
I paid $800 for adv. nitrox/ deco. That included paying instructor expenses for a trip to Canada. I could have done it cheaper in a quarry but not by much.
