I'm always interested in this debate but I just wanted to say I love the Canon 55-250IS. For a cheap lens I've gotten some truly excellent shots with it. I paid $99 for it as part of a deal when I got the T2i and I really couldn't be happier with it.
That totally shocked me. For a really budget friendly lens it has been excellent.
On that note. I also have a 28-135 IS that I hate. I get better shots with the 18-55 kit lens. I need to send it to Canon because something isn't right with it. I had a local shop look at it recently but they thought it was ok. It's not. I'd stay clear of that one because I believe there are some bad copies out there.
