The dirt section on my board is now a modded(by me) Boss MT-2 and an ENO Rat-clone. Sounds good and gives me lots of sounds. Think I paid about 60 bucks(for both).

The Boss ODB-3 is pretty sweet as well. I'm borrowing one from a friend of mine I play Bass VI for.
Last Friday we had a gig, and I split the signal from the VI:
Signal 1: VI > ODB-3 > Ampeg SVT w/ 2x410.
Signal 2: VI > Rat-clone > Pitchfactor > Space > AC30.
That was massive sounding!

Other cheap stuff:
Danelectro CC Drive and TOD sounds good. Joyo Voodoo Octave. The EHX Holy Grail nano is one of my favorite reverbs.

I forgot I could get a DN for under $100... I need to get on that before the dollar tanks.

Most of these have been mensioned already, but what the hey...:

RV-3, RV-2, FZ-2, ODB-3, DD-5, DD-3, DD-7, PS-3, PS-2, CS-1, CS-2, CS-3, almost the intire OD/SD series and other dirt (HM-2, MT-2?), the flangers and phasers, CE-2,...

Also: Fabtone, Maxon D&S, echo park maybe. Most EHX stuff too I guess. Most old school DOD stuff. +1 for the Mojomojo suggestion.

Zoom MS50 and 70CDR deliver endless fun, and they are also practical as fuck!

You can score some really killer delays <100usd
Carbon Copy & DD-7 both spring to mind. Also DD-6,5. PS-2.

Edit: Also most of the Ibanez Tonelok series

WAS the Q-Zone, but looking on Reverb just now it seems like they're fetching over 2 hundo.

Got mine for like 40 bucks back when they were readily available—seems like back then they couldn't give em away.

Everybody always talking about their modded MT-2. Need to get one.

Anybody mentioned the Ibanez 9 series yet? These show up for less than a 100$ all the time - at least the PT9, CS9 and FL9. The BB9 reissue is also less than 100 brand new.

For $100? Where are these being found? Cause I'd jump on that hard.

I just picked up an EQD Ghost Echo for $85 shipped. I'd say that's done pretty nice bang for your buck

Sold a PS-5 this year for 80$. You can get lucky.

The EHX Germanium OD is a pretty interesting pedal (with controls for bias and volts) that shouldn't cost anywhere near $100.
