Jose.
Not a big item but Breakfast and Lunch are included in the registration fee.
You could consider carpooling with anyone who will be attending from your area. That would keep your costs down.
On the other hand, you missed the fact that the conference is over a weekend in Orlando - "Mickey Mouse" country. As in the past, some developers will come with their families as the hotel costs are a lot lower and in some cases their expenses are covered by their employer.
When I attend these conferences, the costs come out of my pocket. I pay for me and my wife. I do have enough points on Southwest to book my flight using these points.
I would like to point out that I am using the subscription option as I get a head start on new functionality and can see how I can use them in my applications. Currently I have 5 or 6 different applications I can upgrade with the new functionality. Fp Web will just be another possible upgrade. I already mentioned this to one client and he is interested. This will require me to see what the functionality is and what it will cost to implement it.
I am aware that some developers have created their own browser based programs that are integrated with filePro but these, in many cases, are proprietary as they have not been offered to the filePro community.
Got to go.
