    Go to a few of your local air conditioning shops until you find one that has a fan laying around. They often take them out of units while the fan is still in perfect working order. You can usually get one for $0 - 20. Good luck!

    I never had luck calling either, but once I tried just going in there, I had a couple fans after my second stop.

    maestro hit it right on the head, I also would snag em up out of the trash ( as the fans useally work but they replace it with the ac unit anyhow.) you can easily rewire them. most ones ive snagged have worked fine.
