If you're looking to stay around $50, you should hit thrift stores for sure.

Beyond that, learn to layer for sure. You can stay warm without breaking the bank by grabbing a 3 or 5 pack of decent undershirts at target, grabbing some sweaters and hoodies at the thrift store, and if you see a light-medium pull over jacket you like, grab that too.

If you still have some budget left, get a decent pair of gloves (leather or synthetic material with a nice liner is best, cloth ones just get wet and will leave you colder), a hat that covers your ears, and a scarf.

Edit: also if you or a friend have a Costco membership, I'm super impressed and surprised by the quality of the fall/winter wear. Really nice stuff

That’s the second mention of Costco, I’ll definitely have to give that a look. I have a membership but it’s usually out of the way. They have online shopping but it’s not always reflective of what’s in stores so I think making a trip is definitely the way to go. Thanks
