Ideas? Budget-Friendly Weights

Hello there! I need some of your positive and helpful thoughts. When I first joined FB, I had no fitness equipment of any kind and stuck to the Bodyweight-only Workouts (which I loved!). Last year, I bought a 30-pound dumbbell set (pair of 3 lbs, 5 lbs, and 8lbs) off an online retailer and have enjoyed perfecting my form and getting stronger with FB Burn.

Well, I'm happy to say I think I'm ready to move up to lifting heavier! I thought about a PowerBlock, but gosh those are so expensive and go so heavy...I'm not sure I'm ready to invest that much yet...I'd like to see if I can swing 10-15 lbs next.

Should I bite the bullet and buy the PowerBlock so I can move up when I need to? Or should I buy one dumbbell set at a time as needed?
