Then there are all the letterboxes that are designed to be found without a
gps.
Be sure to visit the letterbox site mentioned in the cache page to get the
full descriptions and hunting instructions.

Hi Roger and welcome,
Just a bit of information for you. You don't
necessarily have to have a GPS to get started in
geocaching. The first 3 finds I made were without one.
Just look for caches that have a good description and
fairly descriptive hints and you should be able to log
a few before the budget permits buying a GPS. For a
couple that I found in the St. Louis area I would
recommend the I44 Rest cache and Chain Mail in
Pacific. And I believe from the hints you could
probably find all 5 microcaches in the zoo without
one.
Again welcome and look forward to meeting you on the
trail sometime
