    Here in Canada there are lots of counterfeits of the old 10s going around. Easy to spot. They're smaller than regular bills and have little dots all over em, and sometimes are tinted yellow.

    Yes!!

    My friend went into a shop the other week and paid for what he wanted with a pound coin. The shop-keeper took a pair of scissors and cut it in half in front of him

    . Apparently there are pound coins in Britain that are white around the rim and thats how you can tell that they are fake. Keep your eyes peeled britons

    P.S On another note the same friend got given 20 euros as change from a shop. When i tried to use it as tender i was refused. I felt a bit stupid because afterwards i realised that we are not in the E.U (we're not are we?!

    i um.. know a guy... who is pretty good with funny money. once spent a few thousand in less than an hour.

    the trick was, to make a higher bill, and then buy something small from a place thats not really gonna look that closely (drive through window.. etc.) and get all the change back, so your money is quickly legal.

    beleive it or not he used an actual printer. im not sure of the other details. and no he didn't spend it all at fast food.. actually... it was mostly printed for more expensive purchases, of less legal products.

    Hm, that's a good idea. Trick the stupid dope dealers with fake currency...hm....that could work...you buy alot...they have alot of bills anyway...the dealer goes to buy something legal...and if they find out it's fake..they'll arrest the dealer! AHAHAHAHA.. yesss..

    No offense to dope dealers, that is. With the 'stupid dope dealer' thing

    Yeh, great idea neville, once they find out that all the money is fake, they will break your legs and want the money back you owe them.
