Moral of the story, you can definitely do Iceland without breaking the bank.
Did you find that once you were there though, there was only so much to do?

I would love to go there, but I think after a fews days, I might want to move on. That's the only thing that has stopped me so far.

I had some friends that were working in Greenland for a while and on time off, the company they worked for would either fly them to Reykjavik or St. John's, and they told me that Reykjavik is nice, but gets boring fast.

I'll still probably end up going at some point though, but I'll make it part of a bigger trip.
