Dropped incredibly expensive reagent- what do I do to offset the consequences?

Title says it all...I'm desperately searching for ways to get money to buy the reagent by later on today.  Any suggestions?

As a student, it's not your responsibility to buy replacement. Talk to the professor you're working with. Be apologetic, so they don't think you're just brushing this off. 

Also,  I've found that "expensive" means different things in different labs. It might turn out to not really be a big deal.
