You can buy a replacement screen and tools as a kit for about 30-40 dollars from sites like eBay. Google tells me a replacement screen would run you about 100 bucks (work included) at Apple, but about half of that at any given repair shop...
Thanks for checking that hafr. I probably should have mentioned that I live in the uk. Could I still get these repair kits delivered to me or is eBay my best friend. Is the iPhone 4S screen easy to replace. I haven't ever opened up an iPhone so I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to these sorts of things lol
Go to www.apple.com/uk/retail
Book an appointment with the Genius Bar. If your looking at getting the issue resolved. As far as I know apple will not replace the front screen. They will exchange your handset with a reconditioned handset but that will be at a cost. About £146 possibly. But you need to check with them.

Those are always aftermarket and of inferior quality.

i replaced my brothers 4S screen last night. from icracked.com its $74 for a quality screen.
Wow seems pricey going the apple route 
. The only worry I have about going the aftermarket route is getting a screen which is crappy quality and stops working after a few weeks. Are there any recommended kits which are the same as/ as good as the original screen (Bearing in mind I live in the uk) if not its between going apple or buying out the rest ofthe contract (4 months remaining)
