Well, if you are tight on money, you could always recycle it with your cans. I do that with alot of alum. bike parts. I am a dork = (part of my anti-denial process)

Oh geez, it wouldn't save you money, silly. However, if you HAD to buy a new one because that one's toast, it would help toward the purchase.
