Cheapest I think would be cardboard from the bins round the back of the shops
For the price of ply and paint, you could use plastic sheeting like stokboard, and it will never need repainting

Usually the cheapest incurs the highest maintenance. Depends on your energy levels and available time, once you have it fitted.
I used Marley Cedral - fit and forget...
if you want it to last say at least 7-10 years then apart from free material like palates the cheaper the option you choose the more frequent you have to strip repair or replace structural timber and re-clad
also cheap means no security so just leave the door unlocked to save damage
