Ironing... Money?!

I know, I know sounds crazy right?!  Well, years ago when I was actually ironing clothes I was thinking about the next day at work.  There was a vending machine at my work and it was extremely picky.  If your dollar was not the newest dollar it would spit it back out.  This drove me crazy.  So, as I was ironing my clothes I took my money out of my pocket and ironed my money.



I also, worked at a bank for a few years and during the holidays people would come in to get the newest bills to give as gifts.  Each time I had a customer come in and trade old money for new money it made me think of this.  Believe it or not a lot of people actually go into the bank to get fresh crisp money. 


Well, it just so happens that it works better than you would think. If you move the iron left and right it flips the corners of the money out and makes the crisp. You need to flip it over and iron it again on the other side.  Also, ironing the money makes feel almost like brand new.  You do have to remember that if the money is faded it will stay faded and if it has lines on it, the money will still have lines on it.  My favorite part about this is the fact that the hot iron disinfects the money without any used chemicals.  I especially do this during the winter time when germs are the highest.
