Finally, someone excited to get a $2
Some kids came around selling raffle tix. Only had 3 left at $1/each
so I got the last 3 and paid with a $2 and two 50 cent pieces. Ahhh, the expression on their faces when they saw a $2 bill. One young 'un told his bud not to fold the bill and if he hung onto it a long time it may be valuable. Told them it would still probably be worth $2 but he still handled it gently. Then one asked what the coins were. What the? Replied they were halve dollars and they went on their way. Most stores alas treat them($2's) the same way - put under the drawer to send back to the bank. Pete's Fresh Foods(a few stores in Chicago) is one of the few places that seem to hand them out in change. Only got one, but the ones I spend seem to go above the 20's to hand back as change when needed. That's the slot it was in when I got mine in change. Halves seem to have a better chance of going back into circulation. |
