Money Saving Tip on Mailing Lists

I've been tweeking my mailing list today and was following one of Sean Terry's lead lists. ONE HUGE thing popped out. I had a list that was 4000 names and I wanted to halve it without buying a partial list, so I added his tip to put in home values from 100K to 300K since that's my investors demo anyways and I figured it would narrow down my list and drop the million dollar homes that I won't be touching anyway. Well it narrowed my list by half but the cost more than doubled! I think I'd rather take a an hour to go through the list weeding out the high dollar neighborhoods then spending that much more starting out. Eventually when I expand to other counties then I will be fine with the added expense.

Another thing I was looking for was a very specific list on a certain subdivision and it won't let you buy a list under $50. So I'm going to have to call and see if they can tack it on to my main purchase.

I noticed you can suppress dupicates from previously purchased lists. How often do you update your lists? I'm thinking monthly so it's on schedule and that way it's always updated but I know some people only mail bi monthly. thoughts?.....
