$50 is for a fancy wooden one. I've had this $16 one for about a year now, and it's worked great on hundreds of cakes. Staci Perry had this slightly more involved $18 one in the past, though she does have a nice wooden one now.

Noro has some pretty good yarn and prepare for a snotty comment, but red heart is crap. starting out with knit/crochet go cheap, but once you are pretty good, step up to better yarn and it's better to work with per my wife.
We got this drop spindle kit for my niece for christmas. the only 'complaint' she had about it was there is no notch to hold the yarn when you wrap it. I notched one with a dremel for her and that helped.

This way you'll only be out $27 if it's not something you enjoy. I'd recomend just watching youtube videos on how to do it, the instructions are not very clear if you don't know terms. watch videos on drafting the roving as well, those will really help get the most yarn out of your roving while keeping it strong.
Hey! I got my budget swift on amazon for $17
It's admittedly not perfect--yarn snags a lot on the cheap pieces and I've had to jury rig a few things that broke very quickly. But it gets the job done, especially when you don't have the money to spare on a more expensive swift! Good luck!
