Never underestimate what you can get from a neighbor's trash. Back in the spring, one of my neighbors was planting out her flower beds with annuals. I saw her throwing away flat after flat of perfectly usable plastic pots, complete with flats to hold them for easy maintenance. I salvaged two and am using them to try to start some broccoli and cauliflower for the fall. The picture shows the items I used to set everything up. I don't have much experience, so all of this is experimental. If you live in a neighborhood where people completely replant their beds on a seasonal basis, you can probably acquire large numbers of these pots, saving yourself a little time and money.
