    The new notes in the UK are more akin to plastic and can spring out of your hand, if you're not careful.
    I'm guessing they don't fold well?

    Exactly. At least twice I have chased a 10 pound note down the road.

    when counterfieters want to "age money" they put it in a pillowcase with some dirt and a few small rocks and then put it in the clothes dryer for a bit.

    comes out looking like the bills have been around awhile.

    In fact money is quite useful as an exchange token.
    It is often said that money can't buy love, but money can buy a Labrador retriever puppy, and that is about as close as mere mortals come to acquiring unconditional love.

    Do you think all that brisk walking has enabled you to catch an escaping banknote?

    It's soo nice put on a jacket/coat/pair of pants that you haven't worn in a while and there, in one of the pockets are a few $100 bills you forgot to take out when last you wore the item.

    True, it has never happened to me - I will have to start keeping money in my pockets so that one day perhaps... πŸ™‚

    It rarely happens with money, but for me, it frequently happens with mints.
