What loop and effect pedal(s) should I get?

[monicajane]

I have been performing acoustic gigs for a couple years and ready to move on to loop and effect pedals (effects as in delay, wah, ect..). I have no experience or knowledge on this so I need something easy to use, and very cheap. Also something with great quality that won't give me issues while I'm performing. Should I get one pedal? Two? Don't need a super complex one with a million different effects. Just basics. help!
