While I have no personal knowledge of the DNA tests, just received this from
one who is - maybe this will help Marc &/or others.

Remember the gift certificate is for the amount off of a test...it is not
the price of the test.
Here are the prices, for your convenience.
DNA TMCRA and Costs (without the certificates)
PRICES and Probability to the Most Recent Common Ancestor (MRCA)
12 marker Ydna test tells you only about your most ancient ancestry....over
600 yrs ago and before surnames. The Genographic Project uses only the 12
marker for males as they are only interested in tracking the migration pattern
of our most ancient ancestors. Their project is an anthropological study;
not a genealogical one, but in time their data will help us.
25 marker match gives you a 95% probability of having a common ancestor
within the last 600 yrs.
37 marker match gives you a 95% probability of having a common ancestor
within the last 300 yrs.
67 marker match gives you a 95% probability of having a common ancestor
within the last 150-200 yrs.
