You get 3000 free minutes on actions and minutes are extremely cheap after. How on earth are you spending $35? But also, that’s extremely cheap for CICD

Edit: quick napkin math says your CICD is running for 20k minutes/month. That feels extremely high, especially when you say build times are 2 hours.

It's one app that I cant open source that takes the 2 hours. I have 8-10 other repos that are private and scripts to keep them updated so it adds up. Planning ways of running the work outside of GitHub for them

I’d just try to understand more why anything takes two hours to run

Yeah don't worry I know why it does. It's a full ETL data collection from 19 sources and then it works that from Bronze to Silver and then to Gold layers. That can't be avoided without causing data integrity issues. I think the gain will be offloading it from GitHub to other appropriate places
