Laundered Money

I keep denominations together but heads every-which-a-way BUT wet bills coming out of the washer get ironed. Friends think I'm weird but not only do they look nice, I can spend them immediately if I need to since they're dry!

I am similar to you. I have to have my paper money all going the same way. One year, while working a church picnic, it rained like crazy. I was working in the money room in the parich rectory. Money came in dripping wet. I immediately turned the iron on in a back room. The priest came in and said, "What are you doing?" I laughed and told him, "I am laundrying money". He thought that was funny.

If I do find money in the laundry, it usually belongs to DD and I just put it in her room. I never seem to have cash on me since I started using a debit card years ago. If I do happen to have some cash, DH always needs what I have. He hates to use a card.

I do! They lay flat in the wallet, great for gift giving - I even spray starch them. Then they look like I just made them! Oh, would that I could!!!!! I'd have the best sewing room in the world!!!!!!
We all do have idiocyncrasies don't we? That is one of mine - the other is taking the label off of cans before I put them in recycle.

I've never ironed bills, if I get new ones I crinkle them up on purpose so they don't stick together.
I do organize them, tho, so that the denominations are together....and reversed, like all the ones are green side up, the next largest denomination I have would be black side up, the next largest green again, etc
