As for vaccinations: her response is, cats lived for thousands of years without vaccinations, why do they need them now?

Ooohhh you're jumping into trouble now... Humans have lived millions of years without vaccines. Why is it then that hundreds of people cross the border into Canada for a flu shot in mid-fall? Your friend is just giving another excuse for not opening her wallet.

And the $45.. I'm sure there are reliable, honest vets that are cheaper than that, but you would have to shop around to find out. I would rather a crappy vet charge me $15 for a consult than not go at all and watch my cat die, screaming and moaning in the comfort of my living room.
