    I spotted this amongst the windblown trash in the grass beside a Mexican restaurant parking lot. Needless to say, it grabbed my attention immediately.

    “No WAY!”, I muttered.

    Ha! OK, y’all had me there, for a sec. Best quality movie prop note I’ve seen.

    Still a fun find.

    Sure did! It was laying there with the reverse side up. Before I picked it up, I was certain the other side would be blank and/or have an ad or some biblical verse on there, or something. We’ve all seen those advertising gimmicks.

    But when I picked it up and saw the normal design and Ben’s face on the front, my hopes rose. Until I read the fine print. LOL

    I'm sure someone was trying to spend it hoping the worker didn't notice. I saw a few when I worked in retail. Luckily, I never accepted one, but I had a coworker that did who ended up losing her job. We immediately call the police. With most things in life, it's worth slowing down and taking a second look!
