    You could fill some empty soft drink bottles up with water?

    What kind of weights? Dumbells can be pretty much anything (plastic bottle filled with water, full can of soup, bag of rice, whatever). Barbells would be a little tougher.

    Do you have a Goodwill or Salvation Army store near you? They may have some weights cheap. Also check Craigslist or Freecycle.

    Milk jugs filled with water or sand would work too.
