Default Broken Exhaust pipes

The last few weeks I have noticed that my car had been sounding louder, so I got under it and saw that both exhaust pipes are broken...rusted through. One is broken where the stock H connects to the header and the other is broken where the stock H connects to the cat-back. I obviously need to replace the mid-pipe and cat-back, but I am not made of money at the moment. Any ideas on what to do in the mean time? Thanks!

goto an exhaust shop and have them cut and reweld in a new section of piping. Its not the best solution, but its the cheapest and most temporary one.
