Lucky $2 Bills

 

We had an interesting day on Sunday- not because of what we did (I'll likely post later about the Harvest Festival at El Ranch de las Golondrinas)- but because within a matter of 6 hours, three $2 bills came into our possession. Not one, or two, but three of them. It felt so odd, and so potentially auspicious! Auspicious of what, I don't know. Thinner wallets, I suppose, because they take up exactly half the space as two $1 bills, and they are each worth twice as much as a single! Ha! I did some reading when getting the image above, and they're not particularly rare, but they aren't commonly used. Apparently there is a contingent of spenders who delight in getting largish quantities of $2 bills in order to witness the reactions of cashiers when they pay in multiples of 2. I don't think that will be me. The crazy thing is, I kind of don't want to spend these three $2 bills of ours because in the last 5 years, I think I've only come across a few of them- and never in my possession. 

Maybe I'll give the kids a bonus on their allowance this week!
