These are top tier prices

Each price is the highest self serve plan on that tool’s pricing page, not the cheapest. That is deliberate, because the people who feel this bill are the ones on the upper plans. If you are on a lower tier your saving is smaller, and the swap still works.

Prices checked the week this went out. They move. The tool links do not.
