For my insulation I bought just over 1000 pounds of it for about $300. I actually think I have enough for about R60 to R75 blowing it over the 7 inches settled that I have now.
If I can get insulweb stuff(not sure where to buy it, not seeing at the hardware stores and the people at the store are clueless when I ask for it or describe what its for), I'll probably fill the walls that face into the attic to R40 putting that over all of the existing fiberglass since if I were able to and it were cost effective, I'd have all the walls at R40. Unfortunately for the other exterior walls, I'm not good at drywall and I don't think it would make sense to tear them out, frame it for more insulation and add more so they will be R13 plus the 3/4" exterior foam for the life of the house.
