If I owned a cash business I would always have a register full of $2 bills. $2 bills bring a smile to customers' faces and almost always warrant a mention to someone later on in the day. So what's your business' $2 bill?

As a former user of $2 bills my only comment is: An auful lot of cashiers will refuse them. Try a 50 cent piece. Not any good for parking meters but they can still bring up a smile.
50 cent pieces are ok, but they don't compare to a $2 bill. The big difference is that while both might make you smile, the $2 bill almost always elicits a comment or starts a conversation.
I've always thought $2 bills were bad luck. They'd be given out as a dance prizes at Bar & Bat Mitzvahs and I'd try to get them out of my wallet as quickly as possible.

Ian, Cashiers CAN'T refuse a Fed reserve note. It's illegal.
