Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
You don't have to wait a year before you can change your belly ring.... and you don't have to buy cleaning solutions where you get your piercing either. It'll be more expensive.
If you buy some saline solution, which is what they typically use for contacts, you can get a store brand, nothing fancy real cheap too. you just take a shot glass, fill it up with the solution and morning and night:
Bend forward, so your belly button is resting on the top of the shot glass, then you stand up, and lie down on the bed, and shake the shot glass so it cleans your piercing... little complicated to explain. but do that for three months and you'll be able to change your belly ring sooner than what they tell you. just make sure before you put a new belly ring in, and when you take it out, put it in a cup of saline solution and shake it a little to clean it.
Most piercing places aren't going to want to use a piercing that you brought it, because it can bring up a lot of legal issues. (Example: if it gets horrible infected with the belly ring you brought in and you can sue them for not using sterilized equipment, ect.)
although some places are willing to, so you just have to bring it in and ask if they would.
Some advice however, make sure its the barbell that you have, not a ring, some places suggest getting a ring when you pierce because its easier to turn, but the rings tends to catch on clothes easier and can really irritate your piercing after you get it.
Another thing; try to go to some place in a mall, they normally have more credibility and have a cleaner studio, this will reduce your healing time and the chance of getting an infection
you are also going to want to wear some look fitting clothing for the first week or so.
Sorry that was so long, Hope it was of help

It depends on where you go to. You can stop by some places and ask so you can compare the prices, but generally it's like this:
$30 for the actual piercing process
$30 more or less for the ring (depends on what ring you get)
$5-10 for cleaning products
So you're looking at around $60-70.
You CAN bring in your own belly ring. However, they charge you extra. I'm pretty sure it has to be a high grade steel, meaning, it can't be a cheap ring from a department store or the mall. Low grade quality rings will give you an infection. You can't even wear mall jewelry until at least a year after you've gotten pierced.
