An ignition coil for my car can be had for a princely $17 on RockAuto. The life hack here is to not get ripped off by a mechanic having it put in; in most cars us Poor People are likely to be driving (i.e. not an Audi, Lamborghini, or Porsche) any garden variety fool with two thumbs and a $20 Harbor Freight socket wrench set can swap out an ignition coil in their own driveway in about 5 minutes.
That’s fair, in most cases I would have done it myself. When a coil pack died on my last car, we harvested one from a dead car on my dad’s property. I took it to a mechanic because I thought it was the transmission. By the time I got the diagnosis, I was afraid that the other pack would die driving it home to fix myself
