Serious question, how do you guys handle a dull band saw blade mid-job?

I was breaking down a side of beef yesterday and the blade started pulling to the left halfway through a rib. I swapped it out, but I'm curious if anyone has a trick for getting a few more cuts out of a blade that's just starting to go.

Used to just swap it, but a quick joint on a stone can help.

Yeah, nina180 has a point, that quick stone trick saves a ton of time.

Doesn't this whole thing feel like trying to stretch a dollar a little too far?
