The key to saving when you're newer is 1) buy in bulk. 2) make elite 8s. 3) Have two teams on that level.
Elite 8 gets you $15 which is + a few dollars on the "single season" price. And buying in bulk obviously cuts into that price, and makes the $15 credit even more valuable
I still pay, but I buy 10 packs and when it came time to re-up, I had about $70 in credits. And I had 4 teams (I just got a 5th that isn't included in my lil formula), with only 1 that makes the Elite 8/Sweet 16 consistently. I have a second team that can start that trend now. So I think this second team will push me over the hump a lot more.
$30 every 3 months or so isn't bad for 5 teams. And the 2nd team moving up could eliminate even that soon. Took me one year to get to this point, for anybody who's curious.
And like chap said, winning 1 title can jumpstart the process even more for coaches. (And now is the BEST time because of the promo code. $50 for a 10 pack is nothing, especially if you have like $20 or $30 in credits built up)
Hmmmm..... about that second team....
