walk into your bank and withdraw $100 in $1 bills. It's also sometimes called a brick.

I once learned that

= a strap is 100 notes
= a bundle is 10 straps bound together
= a brick is 4 bundles wrapped in brown paper and bound together by steel straps. I also believe that the BEP doesn't use bricks anymore.

Some weeks when I get $2,000 worth of twos they come in a block sealed plastic bag. They have a upc mark on them too. There are straped with $200 in each strap each bill in order and yes sometimes there will be a star note with them.
