2dollar bills

Postby daviscfad » Sat Jun 18, 2011 10:22 pm

So i was at a concert tonight and you had to exchange cash for tickets to buy drinks food ect. So i hand the lady 3 2 dollar bills to get 5 dollars in tickets. She looks at them for a min then i ask what's the problem give me a 1dollar bill and some tickets and everything will be good. She ask the girl beside her something then hands them back to me and refuses to take them. I don't understand what the big deal was. She was old enough to know what they were. Anyway just thought i would let you guys no about it and it was the first time i have been refused with cash

I'll pay face PLUS shipping if I can pay with $3 bills.

I wonder why they refused to take them?

I was at a concert last monday. I was sitting in the front row center right behind the pit and the guy a couple seats over threw a handful of $2 bills in the air into the pit.
It was fun to watch the people scramble for them then look at them like what are these. They knew they were money but I guess most hadnt seen a $2 bill before.
