I wouldn't get a cheap unit. Having heat spots is a recipe for turning off BBQ. Honestly, I would look at charcoal over propane/NG, even if you are just starting out. You can get some el-cheapo charcoal BBQ's and the flavor of the food will be 100 times better, just make sure to use lump charcoal not briquettes!
You could look at a propane/NG BBQ with a smoker tray. I haven't seen them work anywhere as good as a charcoal BBQ, but it is an option. Then again a unit like that will cost a bit more money.
Overall if you want to be cheap and eat good food a charcoal BBQ would be best bet IMO.
EDIT: Here you go, a minimal investment into charcoal grilling
