title: Where to run scheduled jobs in the cloud?
body: <p>I have a couple of simple jobs that are running on an old laptop everyday. The laptop wakes up, run the jobs and go back to sleep. Most of those jobs are simply C# / Python programs who are collecting a couple of information on the Web and send me what I need in an email or file.</p>
  
  <p>I would like to move away from that model of running jobs on an old laptop. I could move those jobs in the cloud, but I don't want to pay $50+ a month to run those jobs on a VM that I will use only 5 minutes a day. </p>
  
  <p>My question is the following: Is there a cloud service that runs jobs on a specific schedule where you pay only for what you use? As far as I know, Azure requires a VM, same for Amazon.</p>
