You can do what my wife and I did. We bought a spindle of DVD+RW disks and archived our important files to them. She gives her set to her mom and I take my set to work, so we have not only an archive but also an offsite backup. If our house burns down while we're on vacation, we won't lose all our data. Occasionally we bring back the disks and update them.
Of course, this form of archiving isn't very thorough, but it's a lot better than what most people do.
