Default How do you know when o2's are bad?

Took the car to shop after throwing a code. My passenger side o2 sensor is having troubles switching, I was told. He deleted the code, and told me to drive it till my car starts running bad. I have done a search, but still not real clear. What are the signs? How much do new ones cost? Best place to get them. Where excaclty are they located?
Thanks...sorry for the stupidity

David

How many miles on the 02 sensors? Some people have the "slow switching" code after the install of LT's because the 02's are subjected to less heat because they are further downstream tahn in the stock manifolds, if they have over 60k it would not be a bad idea to swap in new ones.
