The memory feature that strato911 is referencing will likely cost you more than you care to invest. A typical casual user DMM will run around $25 to $40 USD, depending on the source and features. I tend to use one quite a lot, but except for a very few exceptions, normally use a ~$30 meter -- on occasion, I have had meters go ffffffsssssttttttt, let the smoke escape and quit working. This was due to operator error and not the meter's fault.

Some typical e-sites that will give you some guidelines on $$$:
