Is it better to visit a local brewing store and get a beginner/starter set up?
I was considering the Mr. Brew or Mr. Beer (what ever it's called)...but based on some comments, is it better to just pony up slightly more $ for a basic set up? I'm not looking to drop $500 or anything like that....but could one get a basic set up for $100-200 range? At this point, making my own wort/mash (or whatever it's called) would be over my head, so I would be buying the kits etc.
I'm thinking I would just need something to ferment; bottles/bottling supplies etc...

You should be able to come up with an “equipment starter kit” and an extract brew kit to get you going for around, or under $100.
If you live close to KC, I’d recommend going to Bacchus Barley Corn and just talk to the lady that runs the place. She’s very nice and always willing to help brew noobs.
