Welcome to the forums.
Another option for a cheap and quick way into fixiedom would be to find an old 10 speed road bike with slotted rear dropouts and convert it.
Buy a rear wheel with a fixed hub, then take off all the bits you don't want (derraileurs, rear brake, shifters etc) and bingo! A cheap fixie that will also be more unique that many of the OTP bikes you see being ridden around.
