Anyways, I saw this stove top aluminum coffee maker at my grocery store for only $9.99. Are they any good? I just started a new job and am still 10 days away from getting paid. I don't want to spend a lot of money on a coffee maker and then have to replace it after a few months.

Is it the kind where you have a cone-shape on top, and then another inverted cone-shape on the bottom? IMHO they are not that great, but serviceable. We have one, but only used it when we were desperate. It's been sitting on a shelf unused for years.
You could do okay with it, but if you went to Target you might find a decent French press coffeemaker for the same price or maybe just a bit more.
The
Aeropress (http://www.aerobie.com/Products/aeropress_story.htm - broken link) is about $25, but makes superb espresso grade coffee.
