Can anyone suggest/recommend a good, inexpensive pipe that’s good for those times when you want to enjoy a quick smoke. I suppose I could only fill one of my pipes halfway, but I’d rather not, maybe I just want another pipe for those times.
Help, Please for: Good, Inexpensive, Small Pipe

Check out the selection of corncobs at Missouri Meerschaum. I personally have been enjoying the Missouri Pride model. Also, Smoking Pipes has just released a new line of Peterson junior rusticated pipes.
The Ropp Etudiant pipes are small, inexpensive, decent quality, and come in a variety of shapes.

I like these new Peterson’s.
Also, inexpensive is relative. If you provide a budget range, you’d probably get some pretty relevant suggestions.

Most of the cobs on this first page would meet your needs for a reasonable price.

Falcon pipe with a Bantam bowl. Cheap as chips, durable and perfect for quick easy smokes.
I'd go with a cob or fill a regular pipe I own 1/3 to 1/2 full. The problem with small is you also end up with a smaller bowl ID. This changes the characteristics of the blend you're smoking. May as well smoke a small cigar or a cigarette because what you're really saying is you want a nicotine hit.
I agree with the boys who have recommended a cobb. Really cheap way to deal with what you are trying to do.
I’d also say that, in addition to the qualifiers mentioned by the OP, the humble cob falls squarely into the underrated camp, as well.
Peterson Shorts are compact and the chamber dimensions aren’t bad at all for what you propose. I have some I’ve picked up the last couple of years and have found them great for in the vehicle, brief bowl anywhere, etc. Or look at older estates that catch your idea, many have pretty compact dimensions.
Cobs, cheap durable and come in a range of sizes all the way down to a 10min smoke. You can also pick up small plain meers for $80 or so bucks.
Just keep 1/2 a pipe.
Cheap pipes equal cheap stems and garbage materials.
If you want a cob, that’s fine, but you have to provide proof of marriage to your sister, for some that’s a game changer.

Go to SP and look at Ropps. These are well made briar, moderately priced pipes with mostly small/medium bowls.
Rossi, owned by Savinelli, makes Piccolo series that are smaller pipes and can also be viewed at SP.
If you want, you can get a standard length smoke out of a smaller chamber with more solid cuts like flake, coin, plug, and rope, so you can get longer smokes out of a smaller pipe when you wish.

My local B&M has “taster” cobs for $1.99. Yours might too.
Tiny bowls at a tiny price.
They’re pretty durable if you can keep from tamping all the way through them.

Man people are really roasting smaller chambered pipes in this thread 
At .625 inches, the chamber diameters on the smaller cobs don’t agree with me. I would recommend a Ropp Etudiant, a Rossi (I don’t have one but I have Savinellis and highly recommend them), or a medium-sized pipe 1/2 filled. I have Ropp etudiants that give me 15-20 minute smokes if loaded with a ribbon cut.
