To find a quality canning setup check with grandparents, yard sales, estate sales, and classifieds. Or find a friend or relative with a canning setup and have a canning party. Many hands make light work, even when you're making a double batch ;) .
One thing to remember as a bargain hunter, especially with things like food and auto parts, do not sacrifice quality to save a few pennies. In the long run you'll come out ahead and more satisfied. That's not to say bargain brands are crap, many off brands have quality products. Remember, if it tastes like sawdust then it wasn't worth the $0.17 you saved.
And one thing I always must remind certain friends and family: if you bought it only because it's on sale then it's no bargain.
