The only time it is worth doing yourself is if you are putting synthetic oil in the engine. It is far cheaper if you do it yourself. With conventional the price difference between you doing it and the JippyLube places is not significant.
Now if you do run synthetic oil, you can go 50% to 100% further on that oil then if you had used conventional, so if you want to save a good amount of money, run synthetic, change it yourself, and run it 50% or more miles over conventional.
