I picked up a hundred of these today because of all the things I buy that cost between $1.01 and $1.99. It's time this bill makes a major comeback. Turn the dollar into coin and make the $2 the lowest denomination (thanks Biden for the inflation)

I carry a two dollar bill with me I got from my granddad as a kid. Always makes me think of him when I see it.
I still have one of these. One of the signs that grandma wasn't doing so well was when she gave this to me, thinking it was actually real but looked just a little off for some reason.
RIP $3 Bill
I got a $2 bill as change a few weeks ago. I hadn't seen one in years. I assumed 1976 was the last printing but, turns out they've produced a few since then.
I'm surprised the Biden Admin hasn't pushed for a $2 coin with Kamala on it.

I've had this 1953 series $2 bill since 1980 when my grandfather gave it to me.

That's not the saying.
I carry a $2 for good luck.

And yet here you are.
C&D pays you in $2 bills
I beat our fantasy league commish to "win" 3rd place in our league and get my money back. Commish was nice enough to bring an envelope with $50 worth of $2 bills. It was the closest thing to not getting my money back, while still getting my money back.
I found one laying in the street in the heights in Houston about 25 years ago and it's been in my wallets ever since.
No idea why my iPhone decided to turn this image upside down.

Counterfeiting foiled again! Who's gonna take an upside down bill!
Do you make a speech of your opinion on this to the kid working the register who makes minimum wage? I'm sure you're doing so much influencing for your cause.FIDO*98* said:

In my youth the tooth fairy traded only in $2 bills. I need to find me sweet stack of 2 notes that are somewhere in my old room.

the speech is more persuasive if you're wearing a stetson

I'll do you one better. Get rid of the ****ing penny. We do not need it. For that matter, round everything to the nearest dollar and stop giving me change.FIDO*98* said:

I have four $2 bills printed in 2003 that were from a golf bet.
My parents pick up 100 of them every time they go to the casino which they use to tip the cocktail waitresses with.
Makes it quicker to tip $1 per drink, and they remember you due to the rarity of the bill.

I see what you did!
It's what I do every time I go to Vegas for the reasons you said (easy to tip with and they remember you).Brian Earl Spilner said:

Quite true. I spotted it as counterfeit right off due to the upside down nature of it. But then I have a trained eye, come to think of it, I have trained eyes (plural) and I am pretty sharp and pick up on things almost instantly if not sooner. You can fool some people but don't be hauling out any upside down currency and hope I don't call you out on it. It's against the damn law.Decay said:MouthBQ98 said:

Several years ago I visited Thomas Jefferson's Monticello. Paid with a $20. Change was in $2 bills
When you use a $2 bill the cashier usually looks at you like WTF is this, followed up by a call to the manager to figure out what to do.
$1 coins can generate a similar response.

But it was the joke.
The $2 bill in 1963 is today's 20 cents. Put another way, today's $20 bill is the 1963 $2 bill. If you are interested in this sort of thing, search CPI calculator.
We still get lots of customers paying cash. No one ever produces a 1, 5, or 10. About 25% use 20s, 15% use 100s, and 65% use 50s. Basically the 50 is the new 20 for my generation.strbrst777 said:
