AA out of Den Jan 8/9/10 - can I do better?

Wondering if anyone has some suggestions to build onto this. This is what I have on hold right now:

1/8 Den-Lax (955pm-1132pm)
1/9 Lax-Mia-Jax-Clt-lax-den

Total cost: $284

I'm open to flying as much as I can, but trying to avoid a hotel. This itinerary has me leaving Friday night so I don't have to miss any work, and pretty much flying all day Saturday - lax-Mia leaves at 12:35am.

Any suggestions to get the cost down even more? I'm thinking, based in den, the best way to maximize miles is Den-Lax-Flordia-?-Lax-Den.

I'm open to any and all suggestions. I'm Plat and I *think*I calculated this around 3.95 cpm before bonuses. Flying overseas isn't the best option for me since I need to be back preferably Sunday evening.
