WI apologize up front guys if I've already asked this, BUT, does anyone know where to get free approach charts? I hate to give AOPA 40 dollars again when that's about all I use AOPA for.

FSCHARTS.comSnoop around this site; some are simple graphics but others are realworld Jepps. They're small filesizes and can be linked to the FS9 kneeboard

Best source I've found is at any pilot shop. Go introduce yourself at the nearest one, tell them you will haul away their outdated approach books for free so you can use them for sim-flying, and would they mind setting a few aside when they're updating...
I am building quite a collection... some VFR charts and IFR enroute charts, too... all unused, and free!!;D
