Yep, that $10 light from Wal*Mart isn't going to cut it. One is probably looking at a good $50-$100 to get decent lights that cover the front and back of the bike.
I think I have $80-$100 in lights. Of course, they are rechargeable so I don't need to keep buying batteries every few days or weeks.

In any case, budget for a good helmet and lighting if riding after dusk. You are more valuable than the bike.
