Digital Ocean lets me spin up a "shit ton of nodes" relatively NOT cheap, do you know a better deal that will allow me spin them up relatively cheaply?

A full "archival" node on bare metal is doable for under $100. Probably *much* less if you put only the indexes on SSD and the blocks on HDD.
A pruned full node is doable at ~$10, as you say.
Either way, shouldn't take weeks to sync if you have multiple cores and know what you're doing.
