I do not need to do photo editing or anything like that. I need to be able to make graphics for my business' social media, and to display on my in store monitors. I get marketing graphics from different publishers whose products i sell, and i need to be able to add my business name and other info.

I have Photoshop CS5 on my dying windows laptop, and i just got a new MacBook pro to replace my old air. Now that i do not have reliable access to Photoshop i need a Mac alternative.

Does anyone have a suggestion? Cheap would be best. I am willing to pay for a program that does what i need.

I've been using Pixelmator Pro since I've made the switch to Mac. Before that I was a long time GIMP user and so far I am quite happy with Pixelmator.

Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo are the best solutions in my opinion, especially for someone used to Adobe products. One-time payment, bundle available. Look out for discounts if it's not urgent. I got the bundle for almost half the price in January.

Pixelmator Pro is a great, much cheaper alternative but I never really got used to the interface.
