Yeah, they are more pricey. They would run anywhere from $10-14 a piece. archaeologists are poor so we would always beg for a donation. You could always start up a non-profit - Friend of Lake Travis - and ask for donations of tie down anchors and Trimix....
But over time, the pvc will come out or fall over (we have used these as well) as the bottom changes and depending on the length of the tie down anchor, they will stay for a long while.
