If you insert that character a *lot* then (a) you will likely assign it to a quick key and (b) you will likely remember it. You remember which key inserts `$', don't you? If you look at the keyboard to find `$' *each time* then you can perhaps consider marking your keyboard with a little `=E2=82=AC' for the euro too - meme combat. And if the name of the command that inserts it is `euro-insert' then you can perhaps fall back to `M-x eu TAB RET'. (Yeah, in the case of the euro sign, `M-x eu TAB RET' is not a lot better than `C-x 8 RET euro SPC SPC RET'. But in the case of GREEK SMALL LETTER EPSILON WITH OXIA it might help to have a dedicated key, should you happen to use that a lot.)
