The only way to get a certain answer is to have a shop do a system performance test followed by a refrigerant recovery operation. There are several reasons a vehicle's AC system may not be performing sufficiently - low refrigerant is generally assumed to be the reason why by most motorists, but it's only one of several possible reasons. Additionally, if it did turn out to be low refrigerant, and the cause of this was a leak, you would want to be able to have the leak identified and repaired.

How much does it cost to get air conditioning fluid put in your car?

I wouldn't pay anyone to do it, it'd probably by a lot more than to just do it yourself. You can get a can of it at auto zone or somewhere for about ten to twenty dollars and they should be able to tell you where the valve is that you put the fluid in. Second opinion: Your car should not need freon. If it does, then there is a leak, and it would be inappropriate to add freon without fixing the leak. Besides, it is possible to have too much freon, so you need to measure what was in the system. You need tools and equipment to do this, so take the car someplace and have it looked at.
