Sunday im planning to go out get some live rock......where do you guys suggest in the sacto area....preferably some place thats not stupid expensive.... i have a 55gallon im filling right now....

also any preferences to fiji/tonga etc?
 
If i was you I would check craigslist, its seems theres always someone with extra rock trying to sell it.
 
I have some that I could get rid of. It was previously in a tank, but has been in holding bins for a month, so you will have a smaller cycle, but still a cycle. It is pretty average rock with some color. $2.00 a lb and I probably have 50+ lbs I could sell. PM me if you're interested.
 
It is also my suggestion to just watch Craigslist. Just today there was a 40 gallon acrylic tank, with a $550 light fixture, stand and 60 pounds of live rock for $300. If you price LR at LFS, 60 pounds would have cost MORE than $300 by itself! Besides, LR established from another tank is usually a much better buy (its well established and fully cured and less likely to get any undesirable hitchhikers).
