$2 Bills

So it turns out that bringing up a bunch of $2 bills from the States was a good thing.  I've been giving some as gifts, but I decided to try to sell some at a coin shop at the Market.  They only offered me $32 Canadian for the 13 US $2 bills (one of which I paid $5 for).  I declined this because the amount they offered me was less than they were worth (when you use the exchange rate).  So not thinking they'd sell, I decide to try to have a little fun and post them on Kijiji (basically a Canadian Craigslist) for a very high rate (relatively).   Within in a couple days someone made me an offer and I sold them. The thirteen bills, which cost me about $29 ($38 CAD), I sold for $45.50 ($60 CAD).   This worked out a ton better than I expected.  Thank you Lord for the extra cash.  So I asked my mom to send up the rest of my $2 bills back in the states so I can attempt to sell those too. This is fun!

  1. So - when you get the $100 (50 bills) in the mail, how much do you think you will make from it? Can you DOUBLE it? (challenge....)
