So, it's not even summer yet, and here in San Diego it's been an ass-blistering 98° F for the last three days, cooling off little at night, with no end to this bullshit in sight for at least a week. Air's been muggier than Hell, too. Feels like I'm trying to breathe soup. My girlfriend and I share a tiny room in a three-bedroom second floor apartment and are slowly roasting to death.
With murmurs I've been hearing about this upcoming summer being the hottest on record ('round these parts in any case) and with no AC in my place, I feel it might be time to invest in an alternative to my piss-poor excuse for a desk fan. Something that works well but won't bankrupt me is preferable. Please recommend me something, tell me the pros and cons, what's worked for you, etc.

If your roommate situation is super friendly, you may want to consider collaboration to keep doors/windows open for a little while in the evening to disperse the heat of the day after sundown. Once you control the temp, you can close things up.
Completely agreed.
Specifically one facing into your apartment and one facing out. Its what helped me live through a year of Florida without air conditioning. It might sound counter to the goal to have a fan pointing outside, but it sets up a constant air flow through the room.
I have 2 of these (one at home and one and work) and I love it. It's loud, but super powerful. I like that I can put it on the floor and angle it upwards.
