an everlast gyro balanced 4210 (I'm a boxing newb) for $36 at a local sports store. Is that a decent bag at a decent price or no? And please be honest....I kept the receipt! BTW, super high end isn't a need of mine.

Also, I'm gonna join a local gym and might pick up some shoes. Is there a decent boxing shoe for around $40? Remember, this is just to drop a few poinds and to lose the wife a couple times a week so I'm not looking to drop tons of cash. I just want to look half decent! And if I edn up being heavyweight champion of the world, well great!
