I'm not sure what would be too expensive, but I bought this metal rack with wheels to I can store my nicer plates at the gym I train at and be able to move them around easily. The slots are wide enough to hold slightly thicker plates also, and it seems pretty well built and easy to move around. I keep all of my change plates on a separate sleeve since the rack doesn't have space built in for them.
In terms of a cheaper option for storing plates, I've seen a few different things done.
My gym has most of their bumpers and change plates built like the rack in the background of this photo. Pretty simple design framed with 2x6s all around (I think Catalyst has plans for them somewhere), and the width of each slot is wide enough to fit both bumpers of each weight within it.
The other solution that I like a bit more is the bench version, where the weight rack is essentially a bench you can sit on with space for the plates to be stored beneath the seat.
