okay so i was selling glass this weekend as a fest and sold this chick a pipe and some beads and so on. she paid me with a 1977 old $20
even as ii took the money i didnt think that it was real, didnt have a strip in it, but i figured they didnt have them in 77.
i tried to trade it off to some other dude who wouldnt take it, then i spend it on a lighter and got somes change.
i dont think that i have ever come across any fake money before, but i would imagine that this is a pretty common thing that would happen in a place with lots of dcrugs and little cops... what do ya think? anyone else have to dela with this?

I once had a $20 bill dated 1981 that was in crisp condition and felt different that usual cash - felt more smooth and less cotton-ish. I took it to a bank to check it out and it was real.

in dead lot in phoenix last year someone bought a shirt, handed me a 20 and it was obviously smaller than normal, he walked away, but he was parked right next to me, and his hommies stoped him before he could get away (cause they were all drunk, and they were just talkin to him) and i inspected the bill, it was shorter than normal, but he handed it to me kinda crumpled up, so i had to unfold it for a second, and i was like "yo dude" and he was like "oh,sorry about that, someone gave that to me earlier, i musta just been in my pocket" and i was like "right" so he handed me a real 20 and it was all good. but i know someone burned him, so he was tryin to get somethin out of it atleast...

never had any counterfit money, although cashiers tend to check the money i give them quite often with those little pens... i must look like an untrustworthy person?
but i got sold some bunk tickets to coventry last year while waiting in the massive traffic jam. ended up getting into the show for free anyhow, and receiving refunds for the two real tickets we had - which cancelled out the price spent on the counterfits, in total i had to pay the actual price of a ticket, so i was a-ok with that

I'm sure some stores have a policy where the cashier must check if it's 20 dollars or more
I get that a lot too, I figure it's because I'm a 20-something with fairly long hair.
