[Paul Atreides]

I worked in several types of retail for several years of my life and never came across a two dollar bill being used in a purchase transaction. I never denied on this thread that a two dollar bill exists. This whole mess started because I said "queer as a two dollar bill" rather than "queer as a three dollar bill". It is not a phrase I use every day of my life so spare me the firing squad if it is not correct.

Not a firing squad. Not even close. After my dad retired he worked part time in a hotel 'corner store' which sold magazines, (decent ones in those days) and things a traveler would want- small town here- and mainly a liquer store. That was where I first became aware of 2 dollar bills. Alot of booze w as bought with the presumably purloined 2 dollar bill and silver dollars, which were around but not common in this area.
