I Love Greensburg
Clerk Fooled by Bill With Bush's Picture
GREENSBURG, Pa. (AP) — State police aren't laughing about the person who allegedly passed some funny money - a $200 bill with President Bush's picture on it - at a women's clothing store.
Police on Wednesday charged Deborah Trautwine, 51, with theft by deception, for allegedly passing a bogus $200 bill at the Fashion Bug store in Hempfield Plaza on Aug. 22. There is no such denomination, even without Bush's picture on it.

Wow! That is hilarious. I work at Marshalls, like 10 stores away from FB in the plaza...if we would have taken such a bogus bill...we could have gotten in trouble BIG TIME! ;)
Then fired for being so darn stupid...
Oh, giggle giggle. Who makes this kind of stuff up?
State police may not be laughing but my co-workers and I am.
I heard about this story on the radio this morning.
One DJ mentioned that the cashier couldn't have been that stupid and that the two women may have been working together. Unless the cashier was very new, I think that is a definite possibility--what cashier doesn't know the increments of currency? (I have some sad expertise in this area, if you will recall :-))
