I need a telephoto lens for a EOS crop mount. I was also considering getting a walk around lens. I was looking at the Tamron 18-270mm but not sure since looking at some example photos on Flickr. I can get a Canon 55-250mm cheaper and swap out of course. There is also the 75-300mm and 70-200mm. I am really looking for something to give me a 12x or more zoom range with the best quality image outside of spending a fortune on a L lens. Canon/Sigma/Tamron. I don't care as long as it is good and reasonably priced (Below $700 preferably)

I don't know why you're allergic to changing lenses, but I would get the tamron 17-50/2.8 and the 70-200/4. Don't eat lunch for a week, and should be the best you can get for $800.

Both of these are GREAT(tack sharp lol) quality, with little(like, less than any alternative), but the tamron is tamron quality.

If you really want to get a superzoom, you're a horrible person and you should feel horrible.
The distorion on the wide end will make you throw up. If you don't want to waste all your money, pick up a tamron 70-300/slow on ebay. They are all cheap, and they are all sharp at f/8, the only aperture you should be shooting anyways, bro

Why? For your price range, you should be happy to get f/4. Fine, get the 70-300mm f/4-5.6 USM IS. $350-400 grey market.

Really though, if you have a f/slow lens, IS, is not going to give you what you need. Especially for someone who doesn't even sound like they know what they want yet. I'd get the $100 70-300 tamron/tokina/sigmas and resell it to the high school kids in town 3 months from now. I'm not even sure, you know if you really need it.
