It's a video card with a USB connector on one end and a video port on the other. Small addition: you might be able to solve your problem with a USB DisplayLink adapter if you do not need 3D video or accelerated 2D video. There is no cheap 2-in-1 adapter to make this happen. Just remember: one video port can only ever drive 1 display, unless it's a daisy chained display port system or a device that turns 2 screens into 1 big virtual screen for the video port. While it could probably be done cheaper, there simply aren't a lot of options here. It's a niche that most people don't even know about, and not a lot of sales or development is happening there. The problem with your question is that it is rather specific. It does cost quite some money, so it might be in your category of 'expensive adapters'. That is a device that allows 2 displays to be connected to a computer as one big display. I believe that you aren't going to buy two expensive chain-able monitors since, well, you don't want to buy an expensive adapter -) The next stop would be stuff like Matrox's DualHead2Go.
This means your monitors need to both have two DisplayPort connectors and official support from the vendor and inside in the chipset to make this work. It doesnt have a refresh speed like a native display using the iMac GPU but for web browsing or light productivity work, the lag drawing to the third screen is observable but acceptable. You can read more in my review of the J5 Create USB adapter.

While DisplayPort allows for daisy-chaining displays, this only works on supported hardware. I have a 2012 i7 Mac Mini with three displays, none of them mirrored.

Many thanks to Other World Computing, PowerMax, and Create Pro for providing. 2014 mini Dual i5 2.8 late 2014 Mac mini 2.8GHz Dual-Core i5 Intel Iris Graphics. 2014 mini Dual i7 3.0 late 2014 Mac mini 3.0GHz Dual-Core i7 Intel Iris Graphics.
What you need is either a system that combines 2 monitors, or a system that chains them. 2012 mini Quad i7 2.3 late 2012 Mac mini 2.3GHz Quad-Core i7 Intel HD Graphics 4000. No, that 3-in-1 adapter will not drive multiple monitors.
