luggage cost on Airtran

[M2DD's]

when we flew them in April were still were allowed 1 free bag(since we booked when they still had 1 free) but when I went online to print out my boarding pass they asked how much luggage we were taking and there was a discount if you selected 1 more piece it was 10$ .15$ if you did it at the airport. Do they still offer that now that you have to pay for the first bag.
I guess what I'm asking if I can get 1 bag checked for cheaper than the stated 15$ if I do it during on line check in?

I have not heard of that lately. The only price I have seen is $15 for the first bag, and no discounts for the online check-in anymore.
