Haha I used to have my cameras in a lunchbag too! You should get a manual flash if you are on a budget. Those Pentax Sigma AF Flashs costs like $300+.
You should drop by Henry's Outlet Store. Go to the right far end to find all the manual film stuff. There's a large table setup with bargain $10 stuff (lenses, filters, random rings, flash, assorted pieces of stuff.) Look for a flash there and make sure you get one that has a tilt head. They are usually pretty beat up but if you can get a working one, its a great deal. If you got a little more, talk to Paul (the employee that looks over the film/manual stuff) to see the flashes on the display case, they are around $40-60. More or less depending on what you are looking for.
