most pet store sell turtles fairly cheap, although this is not a cheap pet to own, they require a source of uv, an aquarium, a heat lamp, water filters, and other things. you are looking at a very basic enclosure to last about a year running about $100-$150, as I said this will only last for about a year then the turtle will out grow the inviroment and need a bigger tank. also if you plan to get a turtle, the filtration needs to be at least 3 times that of the tank, so if you have a 30 gallon tank you need a 90 gallon filter, or 50 gallon tank 150 gallon filter. they are very messy eater's and poop alot, so it's very hard to keep the water clean without proper filtration. while most pet stores sell turles for $5 to $15 that is the smallest of the expenses.

How can you care for your pet turtle in a cheap way?

Generally turtles are not the cheapest pets to have, especially to set up. To maintain a healthy turtle's life it needs to have good nutrition, clean tank water, plenty of room, UV light, a basking area and a basking lamp. This is quite expensive to set up for the first time, but is relatively cheap to maintain. NOTE: it is often easy to buy your new baby turtle with a tank suitable for it's adult size, to avoid having to pay a lot more money when buying a second tank.
