Does anyone know where/how I may find these? Apparently yellow page listings tend to be more expensive

Thanks

Try asking your mates from school who live in the area. That's how I found mine and I think it's quite effective when you are looking for decent and inexpensive.

ps. Posting your suburb/area might help other posters here on BoS with recommendations.

Just ring around. And maybe ask if you pay upfront for like 10 lessons if you get a discount.

However saying that most just save you like $2 a lesson...so doesnt really make paying like $450 upfront attractive.

I pay $49 with the current school, but I am doing 90min lessons so its $75.

Its very rare to find schools under $45 now....

go for the smaller driving schools and as others have said look in local papers etc. The best way to find one is word and mouth so ask friends and friends of friends.

I paid $40 back in 04-05 and that was a guy who used to have a bigger driving school and had downsized to just him.
