It's difficult to get a "a good cheap one" You almost always get what you pay for when it comes to digital cameras. The best ones are pricey, and normally anything under 3-400 bucks is kinda crappy photo wise, although I am sure there are a couple o.k. ones out there for that. I got the Canon Powershot A40 for like 400-500 bucks and its totally awesome. Macro, videos with sound, etc. It's probably pretty cheap now and its a great buy for the money.

I would just plan on spending between 300 and up because any lower will just be a waste in most cases. Especially for any close ups.

That's good advice.

Do a search on this site...there have been countless threads asking the same question.

good glass is pricey. and it doesn't matter how many megapixals you get if you have crappy glass. personally i like the sony cd mavica series, it has good glass, decent megapixals (in the 350 and 400).
