I’m Buying Clipless Mountain Bike Pedals And Shoes. Should I Splurge More On The Shoes Or Pedals?

I have limited funds (less than $120) and I would like to buy a set of clippless mountain bike pedals and a pair of the “performance” style shoes. What is more important, nice shoes, or nice pedals? Which should I splurge more on?
I am thinking about the brands nashbar and shimano, and I am wondering whether I should get the cheaper nashbar pedals and the more expensive shoes, or the more expensive pedals and cheaper pedals.

What Mountain Bike Is Good For The Road More Than The Rough Terrain??

I have heard that there are mountain bikes that are good for all terrains but perform better on smooth surfaces also. Can anyone recommend a bike that is like this and isn’t overly expensive. I was thinking about getting a Columbia trail head Mt bike. Any other suggestions?
