That is going to depend on where you have the work done, and what area you are located in. You can find prices from about $9.99 to $45.00.
I usually do my own work, so only costs me for the oil and filter, which is about $10.00. I use a more expensive filter than a lot of the quick lube places. I think it is worth it to buy quality.

In the Los Angeles area:
If I do it myself, I pay less than $10 for parts, and I can drop the used oil off at many locations in the area. This does not include a few initial purchases (like an oil drain pan, jack and jack stands.)
If I am not in a hurry, I make an appointment at a local auto mechanic, who generally charges $20 for parts and labor. If I bring my own parts because I'm picky, he just charges labor.
If I am in a hurry, I drive into a local no-name 10-minute-type lube place, and am charged $30 for the convenience. Generally, I cannot bring my own parts into such places.
If I am in a hurry and feeling wasteful, I drive into a name-brand 10-minute-type lube place (like Jiffy-Lube), and am charged between $35 and $40 for the convenience. Generally, I cannot bring my own parts into such places.
Finally, depending on the type of car and the dealers in the area, I *might* go to the dealership. For one car I had, the dealer charged $20 for parts and labor, and did it without an appointment; for another car, the dealer charged $40, and I needed an appointment.
Of course, the last car I had came with free oil/filter changes for the first five years, so you can guess where I had the work done for the few years I owned it.

About $20-$30 bucks at a service store. Never use a clutch-less powered drill to screw in the oil plug. These places follow oil disposal, instead of it sitting in your driveway, with oiled sidewalks. These smell in the summer.

not sure but it also depends on the type of car you drive. 4 cylinder maybe you can get it done for about 20 w/ a coupon 30 to 35 w/o. six would cost you.... i'd like to say 70 but i got charged 95 to a 100 i think since i drive a Mercedes
