Portal is, frankly, worth the cover price on TBO alone. Plain and simple; TBO is Portal, plus TF2, plus some Half-Life thrown in.
Start playing Portal, and you will never cease to be amazed/amused by it. Not only is it a fabulous game, but atmospheric and darkly funny. Plus the Portal mapping scene is really starting to take off, so what you might initially think is just two hours (Yes, the main game is that short) is several more of insanely difficult puzzles that are incredibly gratifying to complete.
Unless you buy the 360 or PS3 versions. Hahah.
But seriously, all complaints about the price of TBO are pretty unjustified. The whole package, including one of the most insanely fun multiplayer games ever created, as well as the wonderful Half Life 2 story, and Portal is a lot greater value for money, more bang for the buck, than every other retail game that you've talked yourself into buying.

When in mortal danger,
When beset by doubt,
Run in little circles,
Wave your arms and shout.
