Have a look here: http://www.lowendbox.com/

Lots of solutions for all price ranges - as you'd guess from the name,
they tend to specialise in the cheaper stuff. Note that these are VPS
though, so you'll get root login on a box you can then do anything with,
and not a simple turnkey VPN solution. If your home system(s) have
enough bandwidth and you're confident enough with your skills, why not
simply use SSH/OpenVPN on your own box and remote through them whilst
you're away? That's what I do.

Cheers
