What's to afford? A gallon of good antifreeze and a clean milk bottle let you mix it 50/50 with DISTILLED water. Keep one in the car and the other in the garage. If you ever get stuck on ice, you can use some of it under a spinning wheel!
If the leak is minor, save it for a warmer day. If you park outside, wait until the sun is out, turn the heat on and when it is warm in the car start removing things under the dash. Until you find the leak, you won't know what it will cost to fix. Could be a matter of tightening a clamp or replacing the core. Anxiety costs too much,
