I'm not sure what the cheapest Sling package is going for, but i'm paying $40 for DTVN with my locals, which I think is very reasonable (considering I'm coming from $135 for Dish satellite). Like I said, the locals are important to us, as we probably watch those 4 channels more than all the rest of the "cable" channels combined, and I can't get them any other way. So no matter how inexpensive Sling might be, it's really a "non-option" for us.
Sling's cheapest base package is $25, but what it includes in terms of just cable channels is a far cry from what you can get for $40-$50 with other services. Still, if your needs are limited, and you're not picky, it's a decent option.
