Why no love for the $2 bill?

[i am furby]

Sometimes I think it would be so much nicer having the good old $2 bill in mass circulation. I mean how many things are really under a dollar these days? Mostitems priced at around one dollar quickly become a dollar and change after the man gets his piece. Besides, the $2 bill is just cooler looking!

IDK, but my wife got one the other day and told me to save it like it was something special

 

[supersic97]

Always keep a $2 bill in my wallet

 

[retrospect90]

I still got one saved too. I save those golden dollar coins and 50 cent pieces, thinking that one day they are going to disappear and Im going to be the onlyone with them.

People say having a $2 bill is bad luck but one thing i do know is i hate $50 bills. When im counting money for a money order or a western union payment andsomeone gives me a stack of 20's and 10's and they got that one 50 in there, throws me off for a quick second. Get rid of the 50!

LOL. I hate that too. They should just have a $40 bill.

But yeah, go to the bank, get a stack of them and start circulating them lol. Half of them would go out of circulation, though. Between people thinking theyare special, and banks taking them in and not giving them out....

Remember this guy?

BREWTON -- A small-town pharmacist intrigued by the government's economic stimulus plan decided to launch his own version with $16,000 in $2 bills, andarea stores have already felt the impact.

Cottrell said he paid his employees with $2 bills so he and the rest of the Escambia County business community could see how the money circulates.

[poogibucker]

are the $2 bills rare, cuz i got a *@%* load in my drawer that my grandma gave me

 

[93snakedfox]

The first time I saw one, I had the "Holy %+#$!" face.

TBH, I still have that mentality that they're rare. I've had one in my room for a few years.

Widrow Wilson is a scumbag first and foremost for making PAPER a currency.

Secondly, he's a scumbag for putting people on the notes who were AGAINST a CENTRAL BANK i.e. Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, and Jackson.
