3 monitors without SLi?

I'm using a dual monitor setup, and I want to add a third one. A 32" to use for watching movies and playing games to be exact. The only problem is that I'm using both my DVI outputs right now. My motherboard supports SLi, but I really can't afford another of the card I currently have.
My question is, can I use my motherboard's onboard VGA output somehow, or a different, cheap video card for the third motherboard? I don't need SLi features at this point, just one more output for a monitor.

Thanks Jim, that might solve my problem, but if I'm using one of those, doesn't it mean that both monitors will display the same thing? I want to be able to have all three monitors in landscape mode.
