The $2.00 Bill I Tried To Spend

IF YOU'RE AS OLD AS I AM, THIS IS A RIOT!

Everyone should start carrying $2 bills! I'm STILL laughing!!
...
I think we need to quit saving our $2 bills and bring them out in public.

The younger generation doesn't even know they exist!
STORY: On my way home from work, I stopped at Taco Bell for a quick
bite to eat. I have a $50 bill and a $2 bill. I figure with the $2 bill, I can get something to eat and not have to worry about irritating anyone for trying
to break a $50 bill.

Me: 'Hi, I'd like one seven-layer burrito please, to go.'

Server: 'That'll be $1.04. Eat in?'

Me: 'No, it's to go.' At this point, I open my billfold and hand him the $2 bill.
He looks at it kind of funny.

Server: 'Uh, hang on a sec, I'll be right back.'

He goes to talk to his manager, who is still within my earshot. The following conversation occurs between the two of them:

Server: 'Hey, you ever see a $2 bill?'
Manager: 'No. A what?'
Server: 'A $2 bill. This guy just gave it to me...'

Manager: 'Ask for something else. There's no such thing as a $2 bill.'
Server: 'Yeah, thought so.'

He comes back to me and says, 'We don't take these. Do you have anything else?'

Me: 'Just this fifty. You don't take $2 bills? Why?
Server: 'I don't know.'
Me: 'See here where it says legal tender?'
Server: 'Yeah.'
Me: 'So, why won't you take it?'

Server: 'Well, hang on a sec.'

He goes back to his manager, who has been watching me like I'm a shoplifter, and says to him, 'He says I have to take it.'

Manager: 'Doesn't he have anything else?'

Server: 'Yeah, a fifty. I'll get it and you can open the safe and get change.
Manager: 'I'm not opening the safe with him in here.'
Server: 'What should I do?'
Manager: 'Tell him to come back later when he has real money.'

Server: 'I can't tell him that! You tell him.'
Manager: 'Just tell him.'
Server: 'No way! This is weird. I'm going in back.

The manager approaches me and says,
'I'm sorry, but we don't take big bills this time of night.'

Me: 'It's only seven o'clock! Well then, here's a two dollar bill.'
Manager: 'We don't take those, either.'
Me: 'Why not?'
Manager: 'I think you know why.'
Me: 'No really, tell me why.'

Manager: 'Please leave before I call mall security.'
Me: 'Excuse me?'
Manager: 'Please leave before I call mall security.'
Me: 'What on earth for?'
Manager: 'Please, sir..'

Me: 'Uh, go ahead, call them.'
Manager: 'Would you please just leave?'
Me: 'No.'
Manager: 'Fine -- have it your way then.'
Me: 'Hey, that's Burger King, isn't it?'

At this point, he backs away from me and calls mall security on the phone around the corner. I have two people staring at me from the dining area,
and I begin laughing out loud, just for effect.

A few minutes later this 45-year-oldish guy comes in.

Guard: 'Yeah, Mike, what's up?'
Manager (whispering): 'This guy is trying to give me some (pause) funny money.'
Guard: 'No kidding! What?'
Manager: 'Get this. A two dollar bill.'

Guard (incredulous): 'Why would a guy fake a two dollar bill?'
Manager: 'I don't know. He's kinda weird. He says the only other thing he
has is a fifty.'
Guard: 'Oh, so the fifty's fake!'
Manager: 'No, the two dollar bill is.'

Guard: 'Why would he fake a two dollar bill?'
Manager : 'I don't know! Can you talk to him, and get him out of here?'
Guard: 'Yeah.'

Security Guard walks over to me and......
Guard: 'Mike here tells me you have some fake bills you're trying to use.'

Me: 'Uh, no.'
Guard: 'Lemme see 'em.'
Me: 'Why?'
Guard: 'Do you want me to get the cops in here?'

At this point I'm ready to say, 'Sure, please!' but I want to eat, so I say,
'I'm just trying to buy a burrito and pay for it with this two dollar bill.

I put the bill up near his face, and he flinches like I'm taking a swing at him.
He takes the bill, turns it over a few times in his hands, and he says,
'Hey, Mike, what's wrong with this bill?'

Manager: 'It's fake.'
Guard: 'It doesn't look fake to me.'
Manager: 'But it's a two dollar bill.'
Guard: 'Yeah? '
Manager: 'Well, there's no such thing, is there?'

The security guard and I both look at him like he's an idiot and it dawns
on the guy that he has no clue and is an idiot.

So, it turns out that my burrito was free, and he threw in a small drink
and some of those cinnamon thingies, too.

Made me want to get a whole stack of two dollar bills just to see what
happens when I try to buy stuff.

Just think... those two are of the age to be voting!!!

NOW do you understand why and how Obama got a 2nd term?

Fishy.....?

I don't believe this story, I think it's just a bunch of BS.........
For one reason, you want to stop for a "quick" bite to eat, but you stop at a Mall instead of hitting a drive thru........
Then, if you are that hungry that You have to stop at a Mall and go in, then you order only 1 little $1.00 burrito.....

Then, last but not least you point out that people like those two are the ones voting for Obama, what gave you the indication they voted for Our President, come on tell us what the " clue " was........

My brother worked at a scrap yard and the owner always had a bunch of $2 bills there to pay people for scrap metal. The bank would order a couple hundred dollars worth of them and that's what he'd pay with primarily for little stuff. I've got a few kept up just in case they ever do stop making them. They pictures and designs on them are pretty neat. Too bad they never really caught on.

The reason they still exist is because it is the most common bet at a horse track. Something similar happened to my wife when we were first married. A teller at the store she worked at told her something was wrong because she didn't believe a two dollar bill existed. My wife went over and looked at it and thought something was up not because it was a two dollar bill, but because it was a Monticello two dollar bill that was printed in the early fifties. She just went with it because it still said legal tender, and it turned out it was worth about $20.

Triple K Kennel, the clue you were looking for is that fact that these two were uninformed imbeciles, which are commonly synonymous with Obama supporters.

Every so often, when I'm at the bank, I will ask for a few. My girls like to put them up to save. They both have about a hundred each.

I agree. No way there would be two obama supporters WORKING in one place.

I'd say they didn't vote. They too smart to vote for obama and too dumb to vote for romney.

If you come up with a 2 dollar bill with a red seal, instead of a green seal, it is worth more than face value.
