250$-450$
Looked today. I think I might get an iron set and mix and match a driver and woods.

Okay, so sounds like you're looking for a game improvement set of clubs, something that is forgiving and a larger sweet spot. Here's some that I would recommend (all prices USD on e-bay).
Adams A2 OS ($400 New)
Callaway X-16 ($330 Used)
Cleveland Launcher LP ($250 New)
Taylormade RAC OS ($370 New)
Wilson Fatshaft IV Hybrid ($200 New)
Personally, I would go with the Clevelands or the Wilsons. The Clevelands are a good game improvement set of sticks and will give you a little more flexability to work the ball as you improve your game. If you're capable with all you irons, this is a good set. If you struggle to get the ball off the ground with the long irons, the Wilsons are the best selection because ot the hybrid factor.
I've played all brands out there (not just hit them, but have played them) and have owned several sets. If I were spending my own money, and it was my game I was looking to improve on a budget, I'd go with either of these two. I learned the game on Fatshafts and will say they are very under-rated clubs. Very solid, big sweet spot, low torque shafts, and the ball really jumps off them. The inclusion of two hybrids in the mix make them a tough set to beat at the price.
Go to Golftown and swing them both. Since golf is 90% mental, buy the set that appeals to you most.
