Join BMG. When they do their rather frequent 65% off+free shipping deals (one's on right now, in fact), you can get nice classical sets dirt cheap. I've gotten quality complete sets of the symphonies of Mahler, Bruckner, Dvorak, Brahms, and others, opera sets, and various other stuff for practically nothing ($15-40 apiece for sets that'll run 3 or 4 times as much from other online stores). It's a great way to build a base collection.

Also, you can sometimes get those big Brilliant Classics sets from Amazon Sellers or on eBay pretty inexpensively.

For exploring, check your local library. They might have a good selection of classical CDs and DVDs.
