Airport shops that donc't accept local currency

We've all been there.

You get to an airport on your way home from somewhere relatively obscure, with a pocketful of notes and coins in a currency you might not ever need again. So you count it up, and it's about enough for some dodgy local liquour or a tacky souvenir before you get on the plane.

And then you find that all the shops at the airport only accept Euros or Dollars. And often there isn't even an exchange desk - and if there is, their rates to change your local currency back are heinous.

No excuse for this at all.
