Insult to injury

The entire family's broke. XD;; Mom and I get paid this week, and Dad's next check comes in at the beginning of next month, if memory serves. I, personally, have $1.29 to my name (in my bank account anyway) and told Mom I'm po'. Not poor. I can't afford the "or". ^^;
The thing is, going through a town upstate, there was a guy tailgating us and it was getting on Mom's nerves... so she pulled over onto the shoulder to let the guy pass. We ended up smacking the right rear-view mirror on this ridiculous red mailbox that was sticking out WAY too far. The mirror completely popped out, and the mirror frame cracked, and we have no mirror on the right side of the car. We have no idea how much this is going to cost--Mom's not even going to tell Dad, because he'll just say, "Well, you should've let him run you over." XD;
I told her I'd help pay for it if she needed, but I don't think I can this week. Rent and art tuition coming out, the money for the hard drive (which will probably be bought Wednesday after Mom gets off from work), and the rest I don't want to touch.
