    Never can have too many free weights! They are the best.

    How about an elliptical? Academy Sports has one for $99. Its small, but good for a beginner. You can also get one on amazon.com for a similar price.
  • Do you have a decent HRM?

    Well actually if you don't know how to use any equipment, get yourself some workout dvds. I recommend anything from beachbody. They work great. I know, I used P90X.

    Gonna agree with the free weights / kettle bells posts. For that much you could even get a smaller power blocks set. From personal experience I've found if I keep up a good intensity with any form of free weight training, and watch my diet, I lose body WAY faster than any amount of cardio you could honestly do in a day, AND you tone up at the same time =D

    Plus there's tons and tons of AWESOME youtube videos demonstrating all sorts of routines with these sorts of things, so you would really never have to do the same work out, if you bore easily =)

    Gym membership with training sessions...that way you learn proper form. If you have any money left over...free weights, resistance bands, jump rope, and a dvd or two.

    absolutely best investment ever would be a Heart rate monitor.

    Next I'd say get a treadmill (check used sites you can sometimes get wicked deals!!)
