I examine bills now too, except for ATM bills. . . <br /><br />Joe - HAHAHAHAHAHA. Thank you for my first morning laugh. Too funny. I apologize for leaving everyone with that image, the computer has been in the shop getting a tune up and I've been withdrawing from my internet addiction. <br /><br />Tancho - You are right!!! I would bet on it. We have been flooded with counterfeit bills and I've heard they are being made in Chapala. I even heard there is a cave up above Mezcala where they are operating.<br /><br />Hi Tahera - Very good to hear from you, I really do enjoy reading your blog. It IS well written! You are on my blogroll and I hope my readers check you out and enjoy it as much as I do. Yes, I'll follow too, thanks.<br /><br />Leah - I'm heartened to know your husband doesn't get better service, I used to suspect I got gringo service but now I know they treat everyone with disdain. I'll take a day at TelMex or even CFE any time over spending a day at a Mexican bank!<br /><br />CHECK YOUR BILLS, FOLKS!- Mexican Trailrunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05987460497945211699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8777171318205023886.post-16862432542546649452010-06-03T07:40:45.241-05:002010-06-03T07:40:45.241-05:00One of the downsides with living in a cash-only so...One of the downsides with living in a cash-only society. I send my husband to deal with the banks and most other big businesses here.

Sadly that is one reason to stop using ATM machines, but for us they are too convenient to stop using. As you say it was a lesson, cheaper than your friends.....<br />Damn those great printers.....make great photos and passable bank notes!Tanchohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11196129338636347646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8777171318205023886.post-45082209931763229122010-06-03T00:14:43.976-05:002010-06-03T00:14:43.976-05:00Well, that's the bad news.

I immediately returned it to the Farmacia Guadalajara where it was given to me, but all of the clerks played dumb and they all denied ever giving it to me. We took it to the bank to see if they would take it, but since it was missing most of the serial numbers, it was no longer valid. My mother-in-law still has it. And I now check each and every bill given to me. <br /><br />Hubby and the rest of the family are going to be shocked to learn that funny money is being handed out at the ATM's.Leslie Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12084393882026836564noreply@blogger.com
