How to spend Icelandic money

qwertplaywert

A simply request, truth be told.
My tale is this:
Many moons ago[at this stage you must count up the number of moons in the last 1/2 years] , I ventured to Iceland. Unfortunately, there economy didn't seem to enjoy my visit, and decided to collaspe that weekend. Oh dear. No bank would touch my remaining money, which was bought with 100 crisp euros.


I've bided my time;I've done my waiting. I've read reports about how the Icelandic economic is back up and running near full strenght. I did a currency check online, my 12,000 Icelandic króna is worth around 80 euro.
Today, I bit the bullet. I went into Bank of Ireland. 5 minutes later, I walked out of Bank of Ireland a crushed,crushed man. I wasn't really paying much attention to the bank teller, but the important word that I caught was 'No' , we do not take Icelandic króna , it was worthless since the economic collasped.

TL;DR

So AH, I ask you, what would you do with the 12,000 krona?

This actually might be good for the lolz. Wear a viking costume when you go. And speak Icelandic (or pretend to: I'm guessing the cashier won't know)

This seems like a good idea. Will follow through with it if I can't find anything incredibly stupid to spend the money on.

Start papering a wall with it, then finish off the wall with other useless currencies, before persuading people that it's a work of art.

Call it "The World Economies Have Gone To The Wall"

Some knob will then buy the "art-work" for €30 million.

sell it on ebay for icelandic people to buy, explain the situation, its worth 68 euro, so sell it for 55, free money for someone over there and you get 50 euro for it.
