Who, besides drug dealers, uses $100’s?

[Lazlo in PA]

I may be considered on parity with Drug Dealers but as a Landlord I deal with $100 bills all the time. Try getting the supermarket checkout chick to make change properly is always entertaining. Everyone used plastic so they have no idea what they are doing.

Are you a little kid? Grownups use big bills when buying large items, like a boat or a motorcycle or a trailer.

Watch “PAWN STARS” on the History Channel

Pay their customers in cash with $100 bills.....

[Las Vegas Ron]

$100.00 dollar bills are very common here....as much so as any other denomination.

Everyone in my family carries a hundred dollar bill tucked away in a secret place separate from the wallet or purse. This is for use only in dire emergencies, and woe to my child who cannot produce his or her bill for my inspection when summoned.

This is a long-standing family tradition, although in days gone by it was a $5 or $10 bill. My grandma used to say, you can’t solve every problem with a sawbuck, but you sure can solve a lot of them.

Ever been to the bank on the 1st or 15th of the month? Many people cash out payroll checks in cash.

I do. Even though they aren’t worth what they used to be, I use them as a way of budgeting myself. And I think the drug argument is a mainstream media ploy telling us we shouldn’t use cash. Cash is the greatest protector of our privacy and freedom. Imagine BO & Co could decide they didn’t like your conservative politics and could turn off your cards. DHS has already started painting us a right wing kooks. Cutting off our money is one way to stop us. And you can cut off cards, but you can’t cut off cash.

Also, I have absolutely no debt because I try and pay everything via cash or check. No way to get in trouble if you do that. Cash is freedom. And who is against freedom?

Here in the DC area, every once in a while I go to an ATM and punch in “$100” expecting 5 crisp new $20 bills to shuffle out. Instead, one $100 bill is dispensed. It’s actually a bit of a letdown.

Bank of America ATMs, in particular, seem to be stocked with $100s.

[Las Vegas Ron]

What, you live in Reno and you don't see $100.00 bills as common currency??

[nkycincinnatikid]

These new C notes could be unhealthy when used snorting cocaine. It’s a public health issue and the government is taking care of its own.

Who, besides drug dealers, uses $100’s?

I do. I keep one or two in a compartment of my wallet, in case my credit card ever gets declined for whatever reason.
