You don't need to have $36 dollars on you at all times. As well - if you can work with the sizing issues, you wouldn't need £85, either.

Also, it should be pointed out that even if it DID require that, why would a US performer be using British notes, Pitto? :lol:

I live here in Australia and I have never heard that line before! It just proves once again how serious you British are about your beer :lol:!

It's so expensive in pubs and clubs that we daren't take our eyes off it for a second :roll: ! If a guy needs to go to the toilet he leaves a note on his beer saying, 'Don't drink this, I spat in it' When he comes back someone's added, ' So have I'.

From a British performer's point of view.

Fair enough then I do think it' a great effect.

Cheers,

I bought this very same trick (Admittedly without the coin production) here in the UK from a local magic shop about 3 years ago... using Euros..It consisted of a A4 piece of paper with instructions........
As I was going on holiday I asked the owner if he knew any tricks involving euros.. he did.. this one(nearly) and a coin unique euro cent version....

Both of which I enjoyed performing a lot...

How you manage to make a Whole DVD out of it I fail to fathom...

Well in fact I do as I've seen it... enough said....

I must say I almost purchased this trick, however, we have euro bills here, which are VERY different in size :( If anyone has succesfully adopted this trick with euro bills, please post your findings here, I'd love to know if it is at all possible.

Thank you for a good review Demitri.

Wait, I'm still not clear, do I need to make a $35 gimmick or carry $35 around to do the trick?

You need to create a gimmick.

It doesn't cost $35 to make it - and no, blumunky - you do not need to carry $36 around with you to perform it.

Has anyone yet decided if this can be done with UK currency? If so does it involve trimming it?
