You already said you don't have much money but getting access to heavier weights seems like the only possibility.

get two high stools and start doing dips on them.
Also, wear a backpack and fill it up with heavy stuff, maybe like heavy textbooks or bags or rice and do all of your exercises with that backpack on. I'd recommend backpacks with the front strap for stability so that the backpack doesn't swing around and fuck up your rep.
Once pushups with the backpack get too easy for you, get someone to sit on your back as you do the pushups, it'll provide steady and even pressure.
You could get pretty fucking lean and toned out from that circuit that you have there, but never compromise form for rep count... I wouldn't suggest you do the individual sets with high speed, but if you want, maybe shorten the break periods...
