My favorite place that was cheap and good closed down, and I haven't found a good replacement since.
I went to Dashing Diva and it was $37 for a pedicure, which is way too much! You do get nicer treatment, but I like my pedicures simple (and cheap).
How much do you pay?
(and what color are you currently wearing? I'm wearing a bright orange color from essie!)

My new place is $25 for a pedicure. Right now I've got Mint Candy Apple by Essie!

I never do a pedi by itself but my neighborhood spot is $20 for a mani/pedi.

Usually around $32? But I get one of the upgraded pedicures. Comes with the hot stone leg massages and some other little upgrades. I'm currently wearing RBL Lotus Elise.

$25? $30? for a regular pedi... i think if you combo it, it's $40 for a mani/pedi.
i just get shellac on my nails sometimes ($30) and paint my own toes! they're hot/neon pink rt now.

20-25 depending on what level I get, I usually go deluxe at 23 bucks. I have Essie In the Cab-Ana right now on my toes.

I went for my first ever mani/pedi last week and it was $55.
Yikes! I really enjoyed it so I'll need to find somewhere less expensive!

@Mrs. Bee: is bay ridge too far to travel? There are a few, good cheap spots over there.

@hotchildinthecity: when I was on the UWS I lived down the block from a place with that deal! It was awesome!
Right now I think I pay $18 for a pedi. @lawbee11: I have the same color on my toes!

@Madison43: yah way too far. i need something in my neighborhood!
@Mrs. Jump Rope: first ever????

Damn, I'm getting ripped off! I'm easily paying $40.00. They give a pretty killer back massage while I'm drying though so I don't mind paying it the 3 or 4 times a year that I get one.
ETA: I'm sure if I just said polish change or "don't give me your most expensive spa pedi" it'd be cheaper.

$25 for the regular....$35 for the extra stuff. I have no idea what the name is I have on but it's a reddish coral.

ahhhh its so expensive here... small town with only fancy spas so they are like $45 plus. I go when I'm in the city with my mom and it's usually $30 for a mani AND pedi.
I'm wearing a bright pink that's chipped 
blogger / coconut / 8306 posts
@Mrs. Bee: I've had manis before but this was my first pedi!
nectarine / 2272 posts
@hilsy85: yep, i'm on the ues! There are like three places practically on my block that have the same deal. I can't believe how much my sister/mom pay for a mani/pedi upstate *cringe*

Free, but that's only because I ask for them for Christmas. The gift card is for $55 though, which is insane, but I like my salon. Since I only go once a year, I guess it's okay.
GOLD / watermelon / 14076 posts
@hilsy85: I love it!! I bought it from Target and bring it with me. I find it lasts longer when I provide my own...I think sometimes they add liquid to the polish at the salon when it starts to run low. Then it chips easily.

It's crazy around here,'we only have the fancy salons so it's like $60. Plus it takes like 2 hours of your time.Needless to say I rarely get them.
I miss living in the city where you could get a quick and cheap pedi !

@Mrs. Bee: Bee! My mom is CFO for the company that owns Dashing Diva! Which location did you go to? The one in Brooklyn? Next time let me know! I'll give you a frequent card to use for cheap manis and pedis!
Since I moved to Jersey, it's more of a pain to get myself to a Dashing Diva, so I go to a local place but I pay about $50 including tip for a mani and pedi. I've never just gotten a pedi before.
papaya / 10473 posts
I pay $27 for the whole deal, or $12 for a soak and polish change. I have a really pretty lilac by Essie on my toes, but I can't remember the name!
persimmon / 1313 posts
The place I've been going to has tiered options. So a basic pedicure starts at $25, the next option up is $30, and I think the most expensive is $55 but that includes a manicure as well. They have started to carry Essie this past year and it makes me so happy!
However, in town where I live, a mani/pedi is $60. I don't mind the 10 minute drive to save money
pear / 1586 posts
it's usually $25 for a pedicure, $13 for a manicure, and around $35 if you do the combo. right now, I'm wearing Essie Watermelon on my toes & Essie Status Symbol on my fingers.
admin / watermelon / 14210 posts
@aegie: haha now i feel bad! totally forgot about that. don't worry about it! i so rarely go.
honeydew / 7916 posts
$28 and it's lasted much longer than the more expensive places I've tried so I'm loving this place!
pomegranate / 3643 posts
I rarely get them but they are around forty here. Pedicures are really expensive in Montana. My toes are light blue. And rally need some refreshing.

$45 for mani/pedi. Including tip. I've never gotten just a pedi.
persimmon / 1177 posts
$25 for regular pedicure, $30 for an upgraded spa pedicure.
I have a bright bubblegum pink on my toes right now!
pomegranate / 3768 posts
$35 for pedicure. I use to go to his cheapie place that charged $15 but after they cut my toe I said never again. I'm wearing a red color by Essie.
GOLD / pomegranate / 3938 posts
I think mine is $25, and I pay $5 extra for the extra callous remover. Sometime another $5 for an extra massage if the girl is good and I have time.
nectarine / 2466 posts
ugh, it's so expensive here! There's 2 places in town where you can get them for 'cheap' and that's $40. For my wedding I had a GC to a salon and I'm not kidding it was $90! For a regular old pedi!
GOLD / wonderful coffee bean / 18478 posts
$40 plus tip. I go once every 3-4 weeks. It is $25 for a basic one, but I like the "spa pedicure" better.
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
Not fancy places at all, but $15 for mani/pedi, I think just pedi is $10. I don't really want to pay anymore than that!

I go to a place where it's $35 for a mani/pedi!
My mani came off, but I have this coral color on my toes from Vinylux!
cantaloupe / 6059 posts
It's about $35 here. I lived in LA before where I could get them for a lot cheaper so I rarely go these days because I hate shelling out that much.
Which is probably why my toenails currently look so bad.
