Any and all suggestions are appreciated  Thanks!

The best red wine value in the US is Cru Beaujolais. The label won't say Beaujolais on it so you have to look up the names of the villages it is made in and write them down, or just ask at the wine store.
Beaujolais Villages is a mixture of Beaujolais from several different places and generally isn't as good or much cheaper.
Cheap Bordeaux tends to be a good value. You should be able to find many examples of 2003 -2005 Bordeaux at a well stocked wine store for around $12-$15. They are generally pretty good.
