    $2 bills Empty $2 bills

    Have you ever gotten or found a $2 bill? I don't know what the rarity or popularity of these things are, I'm guessing they're a bit more popular now than they used to be, a couple years back there was some talk around here of getting them back into circulation, why, I don't know, but I've got a couple and I save them along with the other rare and odd money I collect, I'm not spending these things for anything.

    Whenever I get a hold of one, I call myself trying to 'save' it, but I always end up spending it at some point.

    Quite a few. Spend them like you do regular currency. You can go to the bank and request them.

    I have one, a crisp new one. It was sent to me for taking the time to fill out a marketing survey. It is sitting with some of my coin types that I don't intend to spend.

    I was under the impression that they weren't still made and thus were "rare". When I was a kid, my mom would make a big deal out of holding onto them.

    Yeah, they're still printed; just not at the same circulation rate as standard bills.

    Yes, you can... My ma goes to bank before Easter and gets a bunch, puts them in Easter cards for us. She's been that for years.
