For the record, Canadian money is sooo much better. Is it not easier to distinguish between your money when it's all different colours? Purple 10s, green 20s, red 50s, etc....Every time I go to the States I end up pulling a 1 out of my wallet instead of a 10...

i hate canadian coins that look exactly like ours. get your own ideas.
Our money isn't boring. At least it is cotton so it can go through the wash without being decmated.
You don't use 1 dollar anythings so much now because they aren't worth a whole lot.

you may want to look into the specifics
if you spend over x amount of money, then you can get the taxes you paid in a refund. Else you may not want to go to crazy Canada at all to do serious Christmas spending. I think that you have to spend $325 or something like that. Just present your receipts at customs and then you fill out a big form thingy and WOOSH you get your taxes paid back.

Yes I read actual news stories

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1 ? The last time Andrew Jackson got a makeover, he ended up with a big head, slightly off-center. This time, he will get a little color. The most noticeable features of the last redesign of U.S. currency ? the oversized, off-center portraits ? produced all kinds of derisive nicknames: funny money, Monopoly money, cartoon money.
Jackson is first in line for a makeover. After the new $20 makes its debut, the new $50 (Ulysses S. Grant) and the $100s (Benjamin Franklin) will follow in within 18 months.
In the works is a five-year effort, costing up to $53 million, to educate people about the changes. An important goal is to help distinguish between genuine greenbacks and bogus bills.
?If we learned anything from the issuance of the $20 in 1998, it is that things that we get used to here, because we see it and work on it, when it is first in the hands of the public it is seen as dramatic,? said Thomas Ferguson, director of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. ?Suddenly, we are asking them to accept something else.?
