Budget deck help

I recently finalized my ultra budget Siani and Eligeth deck. The interesting thing is, I am not a budget player, and therefore do not know of many decent budget cards to run, especially for ramp. I am trying to keep this deck under 30 dollars, so if you know of any budget staples or cards that I simply missed in my construction that are under a dollar, please tell me. https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/siani-and-eligeth-budget/

Sky Diamond (the CMR reprint will be cheap), Star Compass, Vodalian Arcanist?

Thanks! Sky Diamond and Star Compass will both probably be included.

If I’m remembering correctly, both the Sol Ring and Arcane Signet printings from the Zendikar Rising Commander decks are pretty cheap. They’re still not super budget so they might still be too high price (my normal budget is $50, so this is a new price range for me). Also I haven’t had a chance to check your deck yet.

I was challenged by a friend to make a budget deck with at least one of the new Commander Legends commanders and the rule was that no card other than the commander(s) could be over a dollar, so unfortunately neither of those cards are options.

Arcane signet is being printed at uncommon in a set were tens of thousands of boxes will be opened. It should settle under a dollar. There is also path of ancestry. It's great even outside tribal because at worst it's a command tower that enters tapped. It's going to be bulk after cmdr releases since its being printed at common.

Ok thanks! I think I may have solved my ramp problem.

Mind stone is my last suggestion. Copies form the ZNR commander decks are 60 cents on CK.

Prismatic Lens is a fantastic budget mana rock. Burnished Hart isn't too expensive anymore. Sisay's Ring and Ur-Golem's Eye are quite tolerable on a budget too.
