I like ants. I paid 0.30€ per tube and I don't think I'll ever need to buy more, I use old plastic food containers, so free, I breed my ants' feeder insects...
I mean, there are many hobbies that can be dirt cheap or free. Do you like plants? Get free cuttings asking for them to your neighbor or any acquaintance, buy a little dirt and cheap pots. Do you like fishes or crustaceans? You don't need an expensive aquarium, you just need a really cheap food grade plastic tub. Do you like bikes? My bike is a cheap second hand one. Do you need a house? Forget it, you'll never be able to pay for one.
I got a lot of my rosemary from cuttings of a bush growing by a car park. Did spend a bit on my bike though as I wanted a reasonably good one, £600 there. I cycle as a main form of transport, few thousand miles a year.
