What is an economic way to protect the exterior foundation

I read laying a concrete walkway attached to the house is a good way to protect the foundation, but that can blow the budget.Is there an affordable and easy alternative ?

If your house has not settled or if the walkway slopes towards the foundation, that is not a good idea. The prior owner of my home did that and caused a heap of trouble that I am now forced to remedy. How about a raised deck? (bricks do not help either.)
a French drain is another means to divert water ,, but digging down and replaces with gravel will help. Otherwise get another contractor. but you should have a space in between the foundation and the sidewalk are still required..
