i got my crimper, ends , cable from home depot. THey have a crimper there for about 30 bux and the ends cost about 10 for a 50 pack. the cable was like 50 bux for 1000 feet so. for ends and a crimper and cable you would probably be lookin at about 45 - 50 bux since you only need 100 feet of cable and probably less than 50 crimps.
They carry premium Cat5e and other Cat5 network cables that can be purchased at any length. I haven't been to Home Depot yet when they didn't have it in stock. And yes, you can also buy the other stuff necessary. It doesn't come in a kit, though; you have to buy each component separately.
