You can trigger events from alarms. And Lambda's only last 15 minutes. So still cheaper than 75K :D.

That's not a bad idea. You could set it up to delete all Lambdas (assuming you've got a CI/CD system capable of redeploying them quickly later) if the billing goes over. Of course, this may hurt you more because of the outage it would cause. Up to you really.
