I would only be looking to go to a few locations just outside of Tokyo but nowhere further and i don't see the need on spending so much on a JR pass if im only gonna use it once or twice.

Yes. I would say if you are not planning on going to another city using the shinkansen, then chances are you will be wasting money on a rail pass. I was recently in Tokyo, and rode subways (NOT covered by the rail pass) more often than JR trains.
