Be sure to get a circular polariser not a linear, linear is said to upset the AF.
Good polarisers are expensive. I just checked B&H site for a 67mm circular Polarising filter their prices range from $34 to over $250 with what I would call good ones in the $150-180 range.
If you have the opportunity try a couple of different makes. Look for a window with reflections and focus on that, with a good polariser the reflections should disappear when you rotate the filter. I tried about 6 when I got mine and the difference between makes is astounding. I think mine is a B+W.
Having said all that sometimes it is nice to see the diminishing haze effect as successive ranges of hills or mountains recede into the mist. It's an effect I try to get sometimes. If done right it can add depth to an image, it can help to have a nice foreground.
