Vivitar 2500, 2800, 3500, etc... fold up to do bounce, some have zoom head
for coverage, auto with a manual camera (not TTL), and reasonably powerful
for the money. These seem to be everywhere, and can probably be found in
good shape for $20 or less. Check the battery compartment. Note that some
are hot-shoe only, so if use of a PC cord is anticipated be sure to get one
that supports that option.
