I'm from California, and I occasionally go to Universal Studios, and they have (had?) a reputation for giving back $2 bills in change at the parking lot. I didn't go there in a long time, so I can't tell for sure. Also, what do you need the $2 bills for? You'd have to be insane to want the bills badly enough to come to US... Universal Studios, so I guess my tip is pointless... :?

We have different problems in different places in the world. Some bill tricks depend on 2 different values to be of the same size, but in concideration for the blind, all bills in Iceland have different sizes. And it would be really strange to show up with American bills for a magic trick... :)

It's the same in the UK. All our bullion has a different size - notes too.
