It's in the Assets/XML/CIV4GlobalDefines.xml file somewhere. Open that as a text file (Right-click and choose 'Open With' and select 'Notepad', for example) and then find the tag: <UNIT_UPGRADE_COST_PER_PRODUCTION> which is currently set to '3'.
I believe the value is multiplied by the 'Production' (Hammer) cost of the unit, to give the actual cost of upgrading, so lowering the value to 2 would make it a bit easier on you.
Btw, if you want to make sure you don't run into problems in the future, you shouldn't modify the standard game file. Instead
1. Make a copy of CIV4GlobalDefines.xml
2. Create a folder in your Mods folder, and name it whatever you like ( 'SpecialPrice4Me Mod' for example
)
3. Create a folder in your new folder, named 'Assets'
4. Create a folder in the new 'Assets' folder, and name that 'XML'
5. Paste the CIV4GlobalDefines.xml file into that folder
6. Modify the <UNIT_UPGRADE_COST_PER_PRODUCTION> value
7. Save the file

Whenever you want to play with that mod, just select 'Advanced' in the start menu, and click 'Load Mod' - your mod should now be on the list of mods that can be loaded.
