I generally agree with the previous answers.
You can also find splitters at Home Depot, Radio Shack, or Lowe's.
Purchasing cable may be expensive. Make sure you match the type of cable used in your existing installation, as there are several grades of coax cable available. The grade of cable is usually printed on the plastic coating of the cable. Typically RG59 or RG6 is the type you want for video. If you run the cable through your ceiling it must be "plenum rated" cable, that is, coated with fireproof plastic.
Here is a brief discussion of cable types: http://www.broadbandutopia.com/coaxial.html
Finally, you can split your existing cable from one of the rooms where it is already installed, or you can split it at the point where it comes into your house. Find a location which is the best combination of convenient future access and shortest cable distance to the new intended outlet.

You can go to walmart or any place that handles electronics and buy what's called a splitter and more cable line to run from the room with cable to others that don't.
