You should be able to do the pads several times before needing discs, provided they are in OK shape and the thickness still meets specs. Sounds like the dealership is just trying to be 100% sure there is no remaining issue with the brakes, which is easy to do when it is your money.

The pads on a Boxster are incredibly easy to swap out. You do still have your "where can I jack it up safely?" issue, but you have to have a friend somewhere with a flat parking space? It is a quick job, even if you are going to change the brake fluid at the same time.
