I took my course through a local community college. I paid $150 for the course, $50 or so for material, and maybe a few extra fees for use of the pool at the college. My class included all gear rental, and pool time. I spent an extra $50 for access to the park where we did the check out dives, and that was pretty much it.

If you can find a school that does it, that may be the cheaper way to go. I spent around $250 (before my personal gear, but it wasn't required).
