lack of deals to any particular area isn't really a factor in doing mr's....you go where the deals [or girls or boys] are.....

but, when i was doing mr's, i would often spend a day or 2 as a tourist if i hadn't been there or fare rules required it....even wi the us, i would go via the left coast to see something on the right coast....

also, a new country is desirable.....you can get your pp stamped & if anyone asks you if you have been there, you can say yes!....

so, just wait it out.....good luck...

edit to add....happy birthday to me, i became 79 today....probably should have taken a mr!
