I have to admit; In my younger days, one of my favorites was to request
a pack of $2 notes at the bank (back when they'd give them out) and
spend them in places where the clerks obviously counted on the register
to guide them through giving change. It's amazing what kind of reactions
people have when there's no slot for the money you've just handed them.
Even I was blown away, though, when a 7-11 clerk refused to accept a
handfull of them. He didn't believe they were real.
