Default Open end & box wrench set over 1 inch

I always wanted an open end & box wrench set over 1 inch but I couldn't
justify it based on its use in mostly outdoor plumbing where pipe wrenches
and spanners and adjustable wrenches almost always end up working.

I don't think I need metric because I'm in the US where the plumbing is not
metric yet, although all my cars are metric (but over an inch isn't all that
common on metric sizes in cars, is it?).

Still it would be nice to have a set of open-end/box wrenches over an inch.
Can an ok set be gotten for a good price (like thirty or so bucks maybe?).
They don't have to be fantastic quality. They just have to be good steel.

If you were to buy a set of larger wrenches, what sizes would you get?
And where?
