I looked around at some of the places I rely on for musical supplies, and I assume you're looking at buying the "Squire: stop dreaming, start playing...blah blah" pack. The running price for that seems to be $250, so you're not getting ripped off.
My personal experience with the Squire is that they are a great guitar for the cost. Very good to learn on. I don't personally like the sound, but that's because it's a strat and i prefer a deeper sound. That's why I play a Les Paul.
I've been playing for about six or seven years, and I'm not anything special. I play punk rock. I don't need to be special. But, I learned just by learning how to read tab, and downloading a ton of it off the net. I picked up these chord flashcards from Barns & Noble a couple years back, and to this day I constantly refer to those things. Most importantly for me, though, are my friends that play with me. Every time I jam with somebody I learn something. Even people who can't play as well as me can usually teach me something, even if it's just a new song to learn.
