Coin Storage/Holders

as a new collector, I now understand that however I decide to hold and store my coins is really up to me. and I understand that I might have to try several holder/storage containers until I find one that serves my purpose. however, is there a way I can find what I like easily without spending money on holders/storages only to find that there is something better? like someone in another thread said, every penny spent on supplies is a penny not spent on a coin. and with the economy the way it is...times are hard for this low level social worker.
