 Hmm.  You're paying $80 for a 5 gallon brewkettle, 2 cases of bottles and a beer kit.  The beer kit alone probably runs about $30.  As LordOfWu recommends, you can do better getting a pot locally: I have 5 gallon and 7 gallon enameled pots, I think I bought one of them at a garage sale. And you might have luck picking up empties from a bar for just the price of the bottle deposit/refund.  Or, start saving the non-twist cap bottles you're drinking from right now--it will take a couple weeks after your first brewing day until you bottle anyway, so you got time.
