You can(Or could?) just go to the banks and request them.

This thread made me curious, so I read the Wiki page on the bill.  This led me to this story: http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=43685 .  I especially like the last line from the police chief, it's like something straight from The Onion.

Hmm, that's not the story I expected.  I remember one from a year or two ago where the same thing happened at a fast food restaurant.  I will have to look for it when I get back.

QuoteAs a means of protest, Bolesta decided to pay the $114 bill using 57 crisp, new $2 bills.

He showed them!

I had one for years. I finally decided to just go spend it. I bought a Mountain Dew at a gas station. The clerk took it without a second look. I was hoping for more.  :P

You should get a 10000$ bill for him. Might be a bit hard to get a hold of one though.

My uncle gave me 50 bucks in $2 bills a few years ago... but I think I changed them in for real dough a long time ago, otherwise I would.   :(

That's a great deal for you now, a couple of years ago you would be getting ripped off. :D

No doubt they're kinda common in the US.  But they're also kinda tough to get in Hong Kong :contract:
