The expensive stuff:
-$40+ a small watchdog: early warning system
-$60+ bicycle, quiet & fast enough to escape zombies or travel distances.
-$350+ IMO A crossbow is probably the best long distance weapon as its quiet, good for hunting and ammo is relatively plentiful.
Many of these should be on your equipment list. Please suggest more items that are really cheap and useful.
