just read the thread, I'm now immediately on my way to the bank to get as many $2 bills as possible
2A advocates will make the currently-flopping $2 bill a huge success!

that you can order bulk sheets of $2 bills from the Bureau of Engraving and Printing
you can order in sheets from 4 to 32 notes, of course, you'll have to pay shipping and processing.....

of course considering they want 100 dollars for 64 dollars of bills... it's hardly a bargin, still if you can't find 'em somewhere else it's an option..
There's one little snag with that idea. The Secret Service considers that "mutilation" of the currency. Even writing "Happy Birthday" or "Go Team" is a violation of those obscure and arcane laws.
Nice idea but not worth the risk for one letter.
18 U.S.C. § 333 (emphasis mine):
"Whoever mutilates, cuts, defaces, disfigures, or perforates, or
unites or cements together, or does any other thing to any bank
bill, draft, note, or other evidence of debt issued by any national
banking association, or Federal Reserve bank, or the Federal
Reserve System, with intent to render such bank bill, draft, note,
or other evidence of debt unfit to be reissued, shall be fined
under this title or imprisoned not more than six months, or both."
From http://moneyfactory.gov/uscurrency/damagedcurrency.html:
"What is Not Mutilated Currency?
Any badly soiled, dirty, defaced, disintegrated, limp, torn, worn, out
currency note that is CLEARLY MORE than one-half of the original
note, and does not require special examination to determine its
value. These notes should be exchanged through your local bank."
Hmmmm....The $2 bill as the calling card of the 2A advocate. I like that. I am gonna stock up on $2 bills and use them EVERYWHERE!

As long as you're not intentionally making it unfit to remain in circulation, or trying to defraud someone, I can't find where you're in the wrong.
...So we're only doing this on 2 dollar bills, right?
Just thought I'd bump this up. I've been seeing mentions of $2 bills here an there, but I'd love to see more carriers just start spending the things to get them into circulation. If you put the "A" next to the "2" in the lower left corner of the bill, it'll be easy to recognize when you get one that another carrier circulated.
Some folks are tipping with them. Others are frequenting strip clubs. ^_^ I suggest just spending the hell outta them wherever you can. Try to normalize their circulation just like we are trying to normalize OC.
So far, I've circulated two to three hundred of the things.

Nice thread resurrection ... send a few hundred over to me ... I'll get them into circulation.
that's a good idea and put a little A beside the 2 also , and no, its not against the law to write on a bill (searched it on ask .com) unless ur slandering someone or something of that manner , we could register the number with wheres George been and see if we receive one back that another ocdo member usedHmmmm....The $2 bill as the calling card of the 2A advocate.
