Perhaps you can get the UVA lamp at some department store or furniture store.
You'll also need a UVB lamp. You can get the lamp at a normal store, but the UVB bulb you can only buy at pet stores.

The heat lamp and holder that I got from PetSmart was like $15, max. If that's stretching your pocket, you might want to reconsider having turtles. You could probably find a cheaper holder at like Home Depot and you can use an incandescent light bulb, but that's all for the heat lamp. The UVB lights are what will get expensive.
