What to do with phone with shattered screen?

I have a perfectly fine Nexus 5 that my wife was using.

However, she dropped it and the entire screen is shattered. Can't see a damn thing.

It will turn on and functions fine. However, it's not usable with the screen in such bad condition.

I sent it back to LG in hopes they would fix it. They told me they would, for $150.

I since bought my wife a new Nexus 5 from Swappa. Therefore, I have a fully functional Nexus 5, but the screen needs replaced.

I don't want to trash it. However, I also don't want to spend $150 to get it fixed when I don't need it.

Any ideas on what I can do with it?
