i use cardamom pods to make a tea. either boil them in a pot of water for about 20 mins and take them out, or crush slightly and put them in the middle of a fusion tea pot and let steep for about 15 mins... i use a teaspoon full (2 teaspoons crushed) for 1-2 cups of tea

Cinnamon stick may be able to be replaced with a small amount of ground cinnamon, but would depend on the recipe.It is generally used in savoury dishes and cooked over a long period of time to impart a subtle taste.
I can't think of anything to replace the cardamom pods with.It has a very unique flavour.I don't think the pods are expensive - similar price to other spices.I recommend you buy some and I'm sure you won't regret it.
Good luck.

just replace cardamom pod with a little ground cardmom (its available in the spice aisle at every supermarket) and replace cinnamon stick with a little ground cinnamon. i do it all the time, works a treat.
