I relive that it's probably cheaper to buy them at the shops but just wanting to try my hand a growing capsicums, and a lot of my veggies for that matter. Do capsicums need to be grown on a trellis similar to beans or are they more like a tomato bush? Sorry for the weird question. I just want to make sure that I prepare the garden properly.

I only grow vegetables that are cheaper to grow than to buy - capsicum is amongst them.

they are a bush type, they don't need a trellis.
