No. There are lots of free directories available, doing a little research will yield you more than you can possibly submit to. Yahoo directory is one of the oldest and best regarded, and carries good pagerank - that said, so does DMOZ.org which is free (although expect to wait a looong time before your site is reviewed). The benefits of spending $299 with Yahoo can easily be beaten by spending $299 worth of time (say you work at a rate of $30/hr, thats 10 hours) submitting to these "lesser" directories - in that time you could probably get around 150-200 submissions done comfortably, of which at least 75% should accept your link. Thats 100+ links for the price of 1.
