Heh, Visa would be wasting their money to run an ad like that here in Iceland, because NO ONE uses cash anymore. I mean... no one. Every single place of commerce in Iceland has a swipe machine (they're very efficient, too), and every single person with a bank account has plastic. We're talking about debit cards here, btw... credit is only starting to make inroads (mostly for online purchases), but debit is ALL THE RAGE. There is really no place in the whole country where one would ever need to use cash.
