I think this is the best starter kit for your money:

It comes with 2 glass carboys, which you want to use instead of the bucket.
Using a bucket increases the chance of infection an doesnt allow you to see whats going on with your beer. Starting out, you will have the urge to want to see what your beer is doing. The only other thing you need are some bottles and your recipe kit. Let me know if you have any other questions. I will be more than happy to help!
