Is this cheaper than what it would cost to buy a pizza once a month?


That is approximately the cost to sign up now for a full body suspension with 
the Cryonics 
Institute.


IF you can find someone to do a permafrost burial (I COULDN'T and I LOOKED!), I 
don't believe 
the out-of-pocket is less than the CI alternative either.

Why settle for less than what you want if the price is so little?

See http://www.cryonics.org for the specifics.
