Ever tried to pay for your groceries with a $1m bill?

Well this woman has

 

US woman shops with fake $1m bill
 
A US woman has been charged with forgery after trying to use a fake $1 million bill at a supermarket.
Alice Pike, 35, pulled out the note at a Georgia Wal-Mart store to pay for $1,672 worth of goods and asked for change, police said.

The cashier immediately noticed the bill - bearing the picture of the Statue of Liberty - was fake and called her manager who alerted the police.

The US Treasury does not make $1m bills, which only go as high as $100.


In 1969, the Department of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve System discontinued banknotes in denominations of $500, $1,000 and $10,000 due to lack of use.

 
Police are reportedly investigating Pike\'s mental state

"This is the first time in my law enforcement career I\'ve seen someone trying to use a $1 million bill," local police chief Almond Turner was quoted as saying by the Houston Chronicle newspaper.

"It was green, but you could tell it was not a real bill," Mr Turner added.

Ms Pike had three of the $1m bills when she was arrested at the store in Covington on Tuesday, police said.

Mr Turner said she claimed she got the bills from her husband.

I gotta get me some of those bills.

Apparently they gave her the opportunity to pay for the items with other cards before booking her, but she had like a dollar credit left on one and something minimal on another.

She also said that her husband gave them to her and she had 1 or 2 more.

How the hell do you spend $1,672.00 at Wal Mart?

That would be a whole lot of CRAP.

Ok the woman is stupid - but you really have to be at the bottom of the IQ curve to think they will give you change for that.  She probably has no concept of numbers.  Only in the south...

She would make a wonderful bride for SirMystiq.

I would have shit my pants right there in line.  Though as Cored said, not a chance in hell I would have actually chose that line.  That would be like 10 grocery carts.

So would you be pissed if you were behind her in line or would it be so funny you would just hang out and watch the hilarity?

I\'d watch for sure.  Not every day you see a hick rollin\' with a million bucks.

Hahaha... this man speaks the truth. I\'ve never spent more than 5 dollars at Walmart.

I never go to walmart and when I do I pick up a shirt or something or I get something to eat.

You eat food at Walmart?!?!

[SirMystiq]

I\'ve seen those 500 dollar bills in a church! They got a Joe Montana autographed football!!

Yeah, she should be my bride...

Pfffftttt

Its a Fake anyway... Everyone knows the face on the $1m bill is Richard Simmons

What\'s truly amazing is that this dummy still went to Wal-Mart with a million dollars. If I "thought" I had a real million, I\'d be shopping at a more upscale store.....like K-Mart or Target.
