Cant seem to find an alternative film type. says it takes 40 series roll film but cant find any available. dont have the cash to convert it but really dont want it to just sit on the shelf.

polaroid roll film has been dead since 1990. I went ahead and converted one to shoot on Fuji Instax Wide. you have remove the back and metal frame around the film plane, cut a good chunk out of the camera body, attach a Lomo Belair Instax back (upside down), modify the front standard because you moved the film plane back (not too hard if you use a ground glass or tracing paper). Not really for the faint of heart, but produces great results due to the coated tessar lens. Composing is still somewhat dodgy due to the instax wide fame being about 3/4 of what the polaroid frame was

Pic related, my conversion

If you can't convert it, just sell it.
I managed to sell mine for around $100 on eBay and it probably ended up getting a 4x5 or packfilm back grafted to it.

If you don't want to sell it, you could just hold onto it. I guess it could make a nice conversation piece if you and your friends are into that kind of bullshit.
