I ran up a tab of $18.45 at a local sports bar on happy hour with the wife, gave the girl a $20 and a $2 bill, keep the change, This chick loves deuces, she's like 25 and looks like Lindsay Lohan minus the crack abuse. So we talk a bit about $2 bills ( she knows nothing)....she has 16 and loves them. I happen to have a red seal worn one in my wallet ( she never seen that), so I exchange it with her for two of her singles,,,then I ask her about half dollars. I'm already good for a few free beers with the red seal deuce next time....them I realize I have an Ike in my pocket ( I often do)....so I let the waitress buy that for $1 from me....( wife was there). I'm 48..edited~ too much and sexist. I'm planning on divorcing my 56 year old wife anyway..... This is like a coin/bill groupie of some sort ?
One of my favorite things is going in to a fast food joint and buying three items off the dollar menu. I then pay with the "trifecta" of a $2 bill, an Ike Dollar and a Kennedy Half... it's fun to see the cashier try to figure out what to do as there isn't a place in the drawer for any of those... hahaha!
I used to spend them all the time. It was funny watching the clerk try to find a slot to put them in their register. However, problems came when they started getting stolen - 3 times within a few years. Quit carrying them and nothing like that has happened in the last 40 years.
As long as no one here pays for their tabs with Morgan or Peace dollars. I still use Ikes to pay for stuff, sometimes the cashier looks at them all confused.
Half of that and half of everything they have together most likely. A divorce is gonna cost a lot of $2 bills, Ike's and 50 cent pieces.
Doug21, stop with the sexist remarks and take a while off. This chatter has no place on the forum. Thanks Jim
