I had a friend who found a good use for $2 bills. He and his wife would go shopping in little towns that still had downtown shops. This was before cell phones. He didn't like to shop, so he would get a paper to read on a park bench and give his wife a handful of $2 bills and told his wife to go shopping and he would find her when he was ready to go. When he was ready to go, he would simply walk up the street and ask at various stores whether they had seen a lady spending $2 bills. He would follow her trail until he found her. That was when $2 would buy more than 1/2 Dozen eggs.
