can i get all of these products at my local autozone and about how much should i look at spending. i mean the last thing i want to do is screw up my brand new 2008 honda civic si by giving it a cheap or improber bath. also i usually wash my car about once every two weeks. is that too often or not enough.

You could get them from autozone or checkers and there not that much, usually are between $7-$11.00 depending on what your buying. There good for people on a tight budget that want a clean ride. Two weeks isnt bad, just make sure you wax every so often.

so it looks like you recommend against using orbital buffers to polish or wax

I believe he said TO use a buffer for the polish and wax...I do, and the result are amazing. You can see the mirror effect in my avatar.
