I had an olympus (FE-100). One day while trying to juggle with an armload of misc. I regretably decided to go ahead and drop my camera, along with a few others, into the KFC bag I was bringing my b/f on break. As luck would have it, green bean juice spilled out from those quality carry-out containers and invaded my camera. I turned it on to see if it still worked after I had cleaned up the juice and it did, for a second, and then went dark. The lense is stuck out and I havn't been able to get it working since. It's not exactly a high end model camera so I think I would feel silly taking it to a specialized camera shop where the repair price would exceed the value.
Maybe it wouldn't?
Maybe there is an alternative to try?
Maybe this has happened to you...?

The only true fix would be to buy a new camera especially since you say that your camera is not very high end.

i'm sorry you dropped your digicam. Now you recognize why Canon coated that wrist strap - so which you will not drop your digicam. i'd estimate there's a ninety 9.9999% danger your digicam is now a paperweight. the guaranty des no longer conceal abuse from dropping or drowning your digicam. save your money and use it to purchase a clean digicam. I advise the Olympus Stylus 850SW on account that its water-resistant to ten' and marvel info to a 5' drop. you should nonetheless use the wrist strap although.
