Hello, this is the thread for what to do with those pesky dollar bills that so happen to be everywhere, and nobody wants after TSHF, and if there is no government.

So I was thinking of a few uses.

Make clothing out of them(after all dollar bills are made of a specially cooked cotton).

Wall Paper- Already has a bunch of designs on it.

Napkins-(cotton napkins)

Bed stuffing-

A false euphoria when you say "I'm rich! I'm rich! I'm finally A BILLIONAIRE!"-


Post your own ideas for the use of dollars when dollars become worthless than the cotton they are made from.

You can burn them for heat.

In 1920s Germany money bills were used as fuel.

Burn them.

I used to work in counter-forgery and soon found that banknotes are unexciting bits of dirty paper.

Australia uses plastic banknotes for a reason ... they can be washed.

We wouldn't even touch incoming low value South African Rand or Australian notes ... they were simply weighed and burned immediately.

Some of these used low value notes can almost walk across the table top due to their passengers!

Many people working with used banknotes suffer from all sorts of illnesses picked up from the notes. Skin conditions are especially common.

Japan also cleans its used banknotes - although I can't remember if they are plastic.

gosh if these bills have any decent amount of plastic, toss them in the thermodepolymerization unit and make some crude of them.
