My advice would be to find a decent bar that is rated to at least 700 #s and then borrow a couple of plates from old man McClain. He has a whole room full of them. You just have to sweet talk him a little.
Then, keep your eye open for a sale. The other thing to check is craigs list. I found my squat rack there for $40. Nice deal.
