Best option...

I've been looking around for something to make my ever-tapping foot do something useful and I need some opinions on the best option. Inan ideal world, I would probably use a kick drum, but I don't own one and I don't intend to buy one unless I need to.

I've seen several people recomending different things:

Stompbox and bass amp

Kick pedal and hardback suitcase

Kick pedal and cajon

Any of these worth looking into? Or perhaps you know something else that might work...
