Northern brewer is currently running a deal on 3 all grain kits for about $60 (sans yeast, which I'd buy at the lhbs this time of year anyway due to weather).

I have everything I need for a biab brew day ( 15 gallon kettle, bag, thanks wilser) but haven't tried it yet. I'm thinking this might be worth it since they are tried and true recipes, some of which I've done before.
My only concerns are should I pick up an extra few pounds of base malt to account for potential loss of efficiency? Since I won't brew all 3 at once I should also probably leave the grains uncrushed and see if my lhbs will let me bring the grains to the store and double crush for a nominal fee.
Any other thoughts or concerns? These will also be the first beers I keg so there will be another set of unknowns (I was debating doing an extract with grains for my first kegged beer to see if there was truly a difference).
