cheaply

/ˈtʃipɫi/ adv A1

for a low price

Word Origin Cheaply comes from cheap, which originally meant 'a bargain, a purchase' — from Latin caupo 'tradesman, peddler' via Proto-Germanic *kaupaz 'trade.' The word cheap once meant a market or a good deal; the sense of 'low price' developed later. That's why we have chapman (a peddler) and Cheapside in London (the market side). Cheaply is the adverb: doing something at low cost.
