PVC pipes are fairly cheap for Syrian sized ones(usually 5 dollars or less in the US,not sure about UK pricing)and they are pretty much indestructible unlike the OVO tubes and other plastic tubes for modular cages and such.Clay pots are generally best as a hideout,but they're really good for DIY toys to hide things in like nesting material and seeds and things if you get ones that are too small for the hamster to get in and I think they're also called terracotta pots in some places but they are virtually indestructible as well and very affordable even for large pots for Syrians to hide in!I think everyone has probably said this,but anything cardboard is in general very popular among small pets as a whole and it is one of the cheapest things to use for building DIY toys or even using cardboard boxes as hiding places.Just be creative and use safe materials and you can build your own toys for a lot less than some pet shops charge!
