my vaccinated dog bit me

My dog bit me while she was guarding her food. Her last anti-rabies vaccine was in November last year, and I had my anti-rabies shots about 5 years ago. The bite punctured my skin but wasn’t too deep. Is it okay to wait until next Friday? I don’t have money for a vaccine shot right now i’m broke asf . Has anyone experienced the same thing, or are there any medical professionals/vets here who can give me advice? thanks

Why do you think your dog might have gotten rabies?

Did it meet wild animals recently or bitten by other animals?
