stereo deck

So I went to best buy to buy a stereo deck and get it installed so I can have an aux port on my 2005 cobalt ss sc. But they said I need some special harness that's like $140 that they don't sell. Anybody have any ideas for the absolute cheapest way to play my ipod short of an FM transmitter? Thanks.
