Wrong! haha....
I agree the $1 being offered in paper form to hurts....but I also agree
that a $2 coin would help. Change from a $5 makes more sense with both a
$2 coin and a $1 coin.
And John..when was the last time you've actually seen a $2 in circulation?
I mean in circulation...not being the only guy who requests them at his
bank...haha.. The $2 bill just does not make sense as a supplement to the
$1 coin.
