I'd hand them off sometimes to adults if my drawer was getting low, and it always made me feel a little bad about keeping them to the side for the kiddies. Everybody loves a $2 bill.

    Storytime about 2 dollar bills:
    So I worked the concession stand at my highschool for volleyball games. This time, I was working with a partner. Things were going smoothly before a few weird things happened, they aren't relative to the story so I'll skip them. But the last weird thing that day was when my friend came up to the stand and ordered something $10 in value. So I opened up the register and waited for his payment. He then proceeded to pay me in $2 bills. Me and the girl I was working with just stared at him, wondering if he knew what he had given us. The lady behind my friend noticed what he had done and offered to trade two dollars for one of the five two dollar bills. We thought about it and agreed. My friend went off with his food and my coworker and I sat there wondering what to do with the two dollar bills. She wanted to keep one but didn't have her wallet with her. I wanted one as well, then I realized that I had my wallet with me. I pulled out four dollars and placed them inside the register. We both ended up getting one which left us with two left. I had no more money so we put both bills inside the register. After the game, I went to my friend and asked about his decision. He thought about it and went, "Huh, that was pretty stupid of me". He just seemed to accept his decision. That was over a year ago and I still have the two dollar bill
