Currency Study

I came across this cool website today called Where's Willy. I got a five dollar bill a while back and in purple marker it said Currency Study Online and gave me this website. Since I'm interested in currency exchange for my trip I set it aside the note to come back to it later. What the site does is allow you to track where your money has been and where it will go next. Of course in order for this to work the next person who gets this bill will have to enter in the serial number. So far I was only the second person to enter in this number. In 68 days it had traveled 4.5 km and is still in kamloops. When someone else enters it on the site I will get an email as to where it is next. I'm interested to see where it will go.

I just got an email from the person who wrote on the bill thanking me for entering it. That was so cool. He said the furthest one of his bills has gone was Australia or Austria.

    That's cool - I did that once, but then I lost my code so I couldn't track it. I did it a few years ago too so I bet it must really have gone far by now.
