SQS FIFO is like 25-40% more expensive, but you're getting added benefit and additional guarantees in exchange.

For the most expensive tier: 40 cents per million API requests for plain SQS vs 50 cents per million API requests for FIFO SQS.

Like many AWS Services, it started off pretty basic or limited, but gradually and incrementally improved over time.

I started off pretty skeptical, but over time I've grown to be impressed with SQS and SQS FIFO.
