Just kidding, but two dollar bills are collectors items more than anything else.  The two dollar bill has always been suspicous, and that's why the police were called.  It's a shame but if you expect peope to recognize two dollar bills you have another thing coming.

There is always Canadian Tire money.

Some Canadian soldiers were using CT money in Cyprus. All was good until the locals went to the bank to enchange for local money.

I have heard of CT money being occasionally used successfully in the USofA.

Having the cashier treat the customer like that and then have other employees gather around to watch is a sympton of bad management.  Had one of my cashiers done that I would have at the minimum wrote them up.  

It's a fine line we managers in retail have to walk, we have to protect against shrink but also treat all customers with respect.  Except for those POS that try to pull one over on my watch.  Ain't gonna happen.  No sir.  

In her defense though she does have the right of refusal on payment but she just used bad judgement.  Really bad.

The whole thing could have been solved if they had just used a counterfeit pen on them. If they are not using counterfeit pens on their bills they are fools. We normally check Twenties and up.

If you ever get a bill that looks like someone streaked a black marker across it ask for a different one. Counterfeit pens turn black if the bill is bad.

RPM,

They did use the pen on them.

"Belesta says the cashier marked each bill with a pen. Other store employees began to gather, a few of them asking, "Are these real?" "

The cashier just chose to ignore the results.

Wow. I'm a manager at a retail store.

Circuit City to be exact. Some stupid **** has been pulled at our store. But, nothing like that.

Like someone mentioned, the only time an  eyebrow has been raised is if someone buys something expensive (Big screen tv, etc.,) and uses all twentys. But, then all we do is mark it with the pen and put it in the drawer.

Never called the friggin cops over something like that.

Also, we don't check receipts. Only time we do is when someone sets off the checkpoint at the door.

We just check the receipt to make sure they bought it, then de-activate the security.

Which, that also reminds me of a story.
One of the other managers was at the front counter checking someone out, when this guy set off the door alarm and just booked it out of the front door.

And this manager, he's a pretty big guy, tried to jump over the front counter.

Nearly made it, but his foot caught the counter and he faced planted on the floor.

Luckily for me, the security camera caught that and I'm going to put it on the computer and show you guys.
