I want something cheaper than a belt of giant strength, that will increase my carrying capacity.

A type IV Bag of Holding. For 10,000 GP, you gain the ability to carry an extra 1,500 pounds, and the bag itself only weighs 60 pounds.

Cheaper, and more efficient than a 16,000 GP Belt of Giant's Strength.

If you want something cheaper still...

A Type I Bag of Holding is 2,500 GP and can hold 250 pounds. This bag weighs in at 15 pounds.
A Type II Bag of Holding is 5,000 GP and can hold 500 pounds. This bag weighs in at 25 pounds.
A Type III Bag of Holding is 7,400 GP and can hold 1,000 pounds. This bag weighs in at 35 pounds.

A talisman of the disk, from MIC, allows you to summon a tenser's floating disk.

Boots of the mule, double your carrying capacity. Where my DM found that item I have no idea. It may have just been in his head, or the adventure (something about Gallath's roost in FR).

It doesn't really increase your carrying capacity, but the Easy Travel Armor enchantment from Magic Item Compendium. It lets you ignore the normal penalties for medium load. Costs 1500.

A mule with saddle pack costs 13gp. It can carry a light load of up to 230lbs. to a limit of heavy of 690lbs. They don't run away in a fight and will follow you into dungeons. Back to the basics.

*salutes grimmoth* aye, and a dwarf hireling is also tougher than mules....

The Natural Heavyweight feat from the Planar Handbook doubles your carrying capacity, but it is almost always better to simply have a domesticated beast carry your items, such as a donkey, mule, horse, or orc.

Gauntlets of Ogre Power :P

And the Sword of Kas (+10 enhancement bonus to Str). Technically, that doesn't have a price. However, I don't think any sane DM would let you get that at the levels i think you're looking at.

I remember playing a 1st level adventure (think it might have been A Dark and Stormy Knight) that had a bunch of cheap low-level magical items as treasure. One of them was a "belt of lifting" (or similar name) that gave you a STR bonus but only for the purposes of carrying capacity.

There is a belt in the magic item compendium that is part of a set that doubles your carrying allowance. And its cheap.
