What’s a super cheap laptop recommendation for someone who doesn’t need any power? (not a gamer) I just use one to check emails and pay bills. Probably getting one from Costco
You can search for “refurbished” on your trusted shopping places like the known platform websites or town. For example, Amazon has a special section for refurbished laptops.
I’ve bought several refurbished Dell laptops from Amazon in “excellent” condition and I been happy with them all. I figure if anything is wrong with them Amazon has a good return/refund policy.

Maybe a chromebook
I’d recommend a Chromebook. They’re pretty cheap and have good battery life.
Any specific brands to avoid?
Don’t get a Chromebook:

Not really, avoid Amazon but that’s about it afaik.
You could go for a used laptop
Is there a trustworthy place online to get one used?

Thanks! I think I found a good local one. Gonna compare those with the chromebooks at Costco.
