spacers are £2 for a bag of 500 where i live, lot less hassle imo sometimes floors are that uneven i find i have to put 3,4,5 spacers inbetween to get them to stay in.

edited to say the tiles will never be straight doing it that way. you can never return to a job after leaving tiles to set. just doesnt happen! i never start a job unless i know i can get them all down at once. sometimes doing about 25m2 a day starting at 7am and finishing at 10pm at night . this is a days work for me:
