I think the key for you was the fact that you don't have the time to devote to get the job done. I've changed my belt twice, and it is a tedious job, although not really difficult. The first time, I did not have the Chrysler Harmonic Balancer puller, but used a generic one, using the bolt as the point to push against. Thinking better the second time (plus due to the fact my wife and daughter both also have PTs, I sprung for the Chrysler puller; which did work much better.
The price you paid seems a tad higher from other prices I've heard, but that also may be dependent on where you live. Based on what you found, I would say you did pretty good.
I'm at 254,000 now, heading to 300,000; so when I reach that point, I'll have to decide whether to dive in again or not. My wife's 2007 only has 44,000 on it, so that is a ways away, and my daughter's 08 is only at 63,000.
