Nissan might be cheaper, but they also might not wash/detail your car and feed you donuts while you wait, or try to upsell you on something.

Instead of just buying a 90K "package", which usually contains stuff you don't need, look in your owner's manual to see what services are really due. Then go into the Nissan dealer and say "do this and this and this....".

Just change the oil and filter
Change the cabin filter yourself. A 15 min job

I paid $32.00 for two cabin filters last year from my local Infiniti parts department. Used one last year and the other one today.

I do not purchase any non OEM parts of any kind.

I learned this lesson many years ago

Agree with Telcoman and Starter - go with YOUR LIST, not their list. Half the sh*t you don't need and 90% of it you could do yourself. They want $476 to replace the engine belt, I got a Gates belt ($32) and replaced it myself in 30 mins. It's amazing these dealer shops stay in business.

I had gone to a NIssan dealer to get a replacement thermostat from my G. The chimp at the counter said they couldn't cross reference parts with Infiniti. Not worth the hassle when dealing with incompetent dealers and their chimp brained minions. I order OEM parts on the interwebs and do the work myself.
