My coffee cup has some scars and they look dirty. I wonder whether I shoud keep using this old cup or throw it away and buy a new one. Of course wasting things is not good, but is it wise to keep using this old cup and to look at these dirty scars everytime I drink coffee? Economically saying, a new cup will be less than $10 and if you divide the amount by the count of my drinking coffee, it will cost less than one cent per day, so it is a good investment. But when I throw something away I feel like doing something bad. The best way is that this cup is broken itself, but it is very strong. If you drop it, it won't be broken, it just adds some scars.
Keep the cup!!! Buy a new one but keep the old one. What if a friend comes over and wants a cup of coffee? You can use your old, battle-scarred cup and your friend can use the new one.

Or you could use it as a planter. A tiny plant in a coffee cup could make a nice centerpiece for your table!

I think you should buy one but you should keep the old one too. You can recycle it if you want. You can make use of it as a case for ballpens or any little things..:>
