Here’s an unusual one - an M.2 SSD to USB adapter.
Most, if not all, laptops come with SSD’s nowadays, and they’re usually pretty easy to take out from a laptop. Gather some old, broken laptops, and take out their SSD’s. They’re so much faster than USB flash drives, I prefer to use SSD’s where possible. Plus, it helps with e-waste
Could even make this a little simpler - if somehow you’re not using an SSD at least as the primary boot, please god change that immediately. $50 can easily get you 512gb, often even a TB.

I wish I had the money to upgrade my laptops often enough that even my previous one had an m.2 ssd
“neat ideas for $50?”
I help my friends and family with computer issues. I’ve gotten a number of laptops/PCs out of that.
I did the same with laptop HDDs. So many cheap storages.
