What's wrong with eBay for something like this? It's a relatively small amount of money, and small enough to mail in a regular envelope.

are you saying the rubber has stretched?

Just buy the part and skip going out this weekend to help pay for it if money is tight.

Telling a college kid to not go out and get drunk (or stoned) over the weekend is cruel and unusual punishment. Especially at this time of the year!

"Real life" is brutal, and getting worse every year. Just by staying away from drugs & alcohol you have a significant head start. Keep your eye on the ball.
