If you’re just starting out, BeautifulSoup + Python is your best bet for a free web scraper. It’s lightweight and easy to learn, even with basic coding skills.
For no-code, Octoparse has a free tier that works decently for simple tasks like scraping prices. Just don’t expect lightning speed—free tools gotta cut corners somewhere.
Pro tip: Always check the site’s robots.txt first. Some sites *hate* scrapers and will block you fast.
