To me, I think buying a booster box is always a bad investment no matter what. If you buy 2 booster boxes per set, then you shouldn't be complaining about the $20.
But still...
Good old Russel Peters. Just change "$20" to "fifty cents", "$40" to "one dollar", and "Electronics" to "dollar", and "Pokemon X" to "Something else", and you will figure it out.
Starting with absolutely nothning Pokemon TCG related, I have a trick that allows me to play Pokemon TCG for less than $40 for the rest of my life. I just choose not to spend less than $40, that's all.
All it takes is less turnout in organized play to show TPCi that they made a boneheaded decision, although I don't really want Pokemon TCG organized play to die out. If you feel that $20 entry fee is a bad move, don't attend. If you are in the minority, there is really nothing you could do about it, other than to save $20 elsewhere.
I heard freeloading is a great way to save a lot of cash haha. You just can't put Pokemon TCG as #1 priority and not freeload. It isn't possible.
But still...
[$20] is a lot of money. You save [$20] here, and you go somewhere else and save another [$20]. Now you have [$40]. You go to the [Electronics] store and buy [Pokemon X]
