My bank always has $2 bills. I sometimes get them as gifts for birthdays.
What's fun is to pick up a bunch, and then spend them at various stores and watch the reactions.

Gary thats what I have been doing, they look at it like its some sort of counterfit or something, especially the foreigners that own the convenience stores around here, because I am guessing they have never seen them before. The kids at the grocery store are fun to watch also, I had one call her manager and he was all about 18 and he had to go call a guy out of the back I think he was the butcher to tell him what it was

Last summer I was in dallas and rode the train to west end. The machine to buy tickets from gave change back in Sac dollars. That evening we went to a restuarant and I paid the waitress with some of the sac dollars. I heard her asking the table next to us what they were. lol Hard to believe she didn't know that they were dollar coins.

I recently decided to spend some of my unusual money --- Sackys, SBA's, JFK's, and a couple $2 bills. Most places took them without batting an eye, but there were a couple who questioned if "the money was real." |

Everytime I try to spend anything like $2 bills, I get weird looks and told they won't accept them

I love the stories in this thread. I find it amazing that many people who have to deal with money on a daily basis are lost when an unusual coin or bill turns up! Mike |

I have many $2 from all sorts of years in mint condition. If memory serves me correct, I believe I have a star note as well. I am afraid if I go to the bank to get some, I won't spend them....just wind up putting in one of my currency binders with the rest of the 2$ notes.
