Ultimately you can use your pop up flash giving you 1:1 1/200 second at f22 to give very successful macro results! That is your cheapest option. The downside is at 1:1 or 1:2 the flash to subject distance is small enough for the flash to cope. Beyond that it may struggle a little. When I...

Using flash allows you to use smaller appertures and when you only have depth of fields of only millimetres when shooting close up, the small apertures really help. Unfortunately, you need a lot of natural light to get an aperture of f22 with say 1/200 second shutter speed. Often flash lighting...
