New key

I purchased a 2008 Toyota Avalon from a used car dealer. It came from an auction. It only has one key. I went by the Toyota dealer and they said it costs $300 to get a second one. Does anyone know a cheaper way to get a backup key? I hate to have only one.

Thanks,

Bill

you might be able to buy the fob on ebay for a good price, but you'll still have to get the key cut and fob programmed from the dealer

What I have is the key with the built in fob. Key and fob are one piece.
