Serp belt, T belt -- need advice/strategy

2003 Arc V6 motor, 113k. I asked this once before but maybe not as clearly as I should have...
I service the car every 5k with Mobil 1, rotate tires too. I use a good SAAB indie.
I'm going in for service at 115k and again at 120k. At 120k, it's t-belt/pulleys/tensioner and the water pump, will be quite $$$. I want to have the serp belt and pulleys done too.
If I do the serp belt and the pulleys at 115k, I will spread out my maintenance costs. That's attractive. BUT, does it make sense to do that vis. the labor involved in these different jobs? I am a minor DIY'er, so I really don't know.
Thanks!
