Then you may want to read the SS recipe -- it works for any freshly filled pool, but the doses will be on the small side for you.
However, if you have access to inexpensive undiluted dichlor, via Sams Club, using it makes an easy start-up, since you are adding chlorine and stabilizer at the same time. It's still a fairly good deal if you have to buy online. Links below.
Also, till you are able to post a full set of test results, use borax to raise your pH if needed, and muriatic acid, if you need to lower it. (See http://pool9.net/ma/ for instructions on safe use.)

Keep in mind that Amazon products normally ship free; and that in many parts of the country, you will not have to pay sales tax. Shipping + tax can increase the cost from other suppliers by 15 - 40%, so compare delivered cost, not nominal price.
