The books only save you money if:
-They cover all the need to know content
-You have good reading comprehension
-You have free time to study them
I know a lot of people who go read the books and then fail the test 3-4
times. In this case, they may have been better off with the class.
Classes are great because (you hope) the instructor has both realtime
experience and experience with the test. If you use the instructor
properly you get much more than a passed test out of the deal. I think
cheaper methods for the most part depend on the individual. 
just my thoughts!
