    Far from home? In another country? Do you have a Starbucks Card?
    You can deposit US$500 (per day) (per card) at any Starbucks Cafe.
    The conversion is done at the actual (bank) conversion rate.

    That is absolutely hilarious. This reminds me of my mother, and what we referred to as Berkienomics - a play on her maiden name and her unusual investment techniques.

    She would overpay her Visa card when she got the bill, concerned that the bank (Canadian banks being extraordinarily profitable) should have to do without. She did the same thing with utility bills. What we didn't realize, and I don't she did either, at a time when Bank interests were very low, regulated utilities were paying, I think, 8% on overpayments.
