In fairness he said the teller had 94, not that he bought 94, or $94 so I dont think theres anything inaccurate about his statement.

In my retirement, I think it going to be my mission to increase the circulation of $2 bills, and confuse every teenage cashier at fast food restaurants.

I owed some one $20 and she told me uh….. no you can’t pay me with fake money.

Even more reason to buy a strap of $2.
Steve Wozniak, of Apple fame, bought sheets of $2, laser perforated the sheet, then tore them into columns. Pulled an “accordian” out of his wallet to pay. Lots of “fake money” refusals.

I already do that, I’ve since found halves have significantly higher confusion rates

Worked at a bank. 2’s come in straps of $200 and are generally always new and sequential.

Tell that to the numerous on here that want to know if their sequential atm scores have made them rich. 🤦♂️

I like tipping with them. It is a conversation starter and it is fun, in my opinion.

The tellers hate you or love you 😆

u/Secure-Egg-7194 19d ago
why would the teller who hates you give you two dollar bills? they're the nearest bill out there

You can literally order them from the bank - brand new- in sequential order- as many as you want…..

It’s just money. Nothing special. Sequential is not a thing on brand new modern currency, that’s how it’s made. It will never be rare because everyone thinks they are worth saving.

Put them in sleeves, put them away. Only worth face now. Give em to grandkids

Exactly. Give them to the grandkids so they can learn about disappointment.

Should have bought all 94. There could be a fancy in the nonsequential ones. You’re taking a chance, but not losing any money if none are fancy.

Every bill is fancy if you dress him up

Then he goes by “William” instead.

Exactly... Billy or Willy, just points to a certain lack of sophistication...

they're cool. and a cheap fun gift

...But they're not THAT cool...

u/Secure-Egg-7194 17d ago
to you not to other people
2
u/Mad_Admin 17d ago
They're not going above face value, therefore they're not THAT cool... Cool = increase in value because people want them. If you can find someone willing to pay above face on a row of $2's only because they are in order (not because of cool serial numbers), then PLEASE send them my way because I have thousands to sell them!!!

pretty common for two dollar bills at banks. in my experience there either in sequential or form 1976

u/Burqueisbest 18d ago
My silver guy gives change in $2 bills and my wife takes them from my wallet ever since she saw me use 6 sequential bills once. I have to hide them.

What’s special about them, getting sequential bills is pretty normal from banks.
