Yes you are right... plus I like the sound of the tank, and when we have had blackout the house was way too silent without the sound of water running.
I guess I will have to buy cheap salt at Big Als for now...

If it means putting food on the table or buying a bucket of salt for the tank then yes (although horrible to think of) you should shut it down. However if there is anyway you can afford the salt and costs of power per month (which is about $70-100) then you should keep it. You love your fish and I think you would feel sad anytime you went into your office area and looked over and didn't see your beautiful tank sitting there.
