Woman Tries To Pass $1 Million Dollar Bill At Walmart
<snip>

MARCH 9--Meet Alice Regina Pike. The 35-year-old Georgia woman must think Wal-Mart cashiers are rather dumb, because she actually just tried to pass a $1 million bill at one of the retail chain's megastores. According to this amusing Covington Police Department report, Pike was attempting to pay for $1671.55 in merchandise, but a Wal-Mart clerk called over her manager when she was handed the bogus bill (instead of handing over $998,328.45 in change). As first reported by Joey Peters of the Newton Citizen, Pike was arrested for forgery and booked into the sheriff's lockup, where the below mug shot was taken. Pike, who told cops that her husband had given her the $1 million bill, was found to have two more phony seven-figure notes in her purse. Perhaps she would have fared better with a $200 bill.

3. I thought this sounded familiar

North Carolina cops are searching for a guy who successfully passed a $200 bill...The phony Bush bill...was presented...by an unidentified male who was seeking to pay for $150 in groceries. Remarkably, the cashier...gave the man $50 change...In a separate incident...(a man was)...arrested for attempting last month to pass an identical $200 bill.

I hope they arrested the cashier, too!

8. As all collectors of vintage American currency know...
...the highest denomination ever printed was the $100,000 bill. And these are quite rare. Why, I only have four of them myself.
