Help with amp decision

This might sound stupid, but I'll ask anyway since I'm new to this. Would it be better to spend about $300 or a little more on a cab and head, then to spend $150-250 on a combo amp. I'm a beginner and I'm just going to use it to practice at my house either by myself or with one or two guitarists. I don't really see any gigging for me in the future, but who knows what could happen. Thanks
 
its really more about bang for the buck than combo vs head/cab.
get the best set up you can afford. I'll take a GOOD combo over a mediorce what ever any day.
hope this helps
