If you're asked, simply say "I'm sorry, I can't attend the shower. I hope you all have a wonderful time, though!"
Notice that you didn't actually say "NO, because..." You just answered the request with a statement. It's less grating, but you end it on a high note.

The maid of honor is usually responsible for the costs of the shower. If you are not attending I would not pay for anything at all. You should send a gift to the bride but other then that you should not have to pay for anything else.

i think of the maid of honour is in charge yet i might of concept the bridesmaids all chucked in to help. I additionally might of expected that the bridesmaids may be in attendance too. truthfully in case you had a prior engagement the maid of honour ought to have made the bathe at a time while all ought to attend.

Traditionally it's the MOH's responsibility but sometime's brides or other BM's pitch in. If the bride asked you, remind her that the MOH is in charge. If the MOH asked you, then you can refuse if you want. It would be nice to help pay, but you aren't required to if money is tight. If she's going way over the top and wants money for that, suggest toning it down to something she can afford.
