Once you already have an Arduino (one with a DIP socketed AVR chip like an Uno), a great option is to just buy ATMEga 328 or similar ICs with the Arduino bootloader burned on them and build standalone circuits around those, which requires only a 28 pin socket, a voltage regulator, a 16mhz crystal(or whatever clock rate you want to use), and a couple caps. Your Arduino board basically then serves as a programmer for the AVR.
