Shortage of 1'$, 5'$, and 10'$ - 05/23/22 06:06 PM

Was in the Polk City post office yesterday and they had a sign up stating that they need those bills as there is a shortage. First change shortage, now this. See where this is going?

I know the folks in my area are chanting all the larger denomination into ones, gives, tens and twenties and shocking all away at home somewhere cause when the crap it's the fan and it will and the Government seizes everyone's bank accounts people will still have small Bill's to trade for supplies from one another. I am hoping when this happens there will be more bartering between folks than cash for what they need!

I talked to a checkout gal at the grocery store. She said she got a counterfeit $100 from a guy the other day. He was livid as he had exchanged his money at an airport in Canada and had 6 more of them. One more reason to hate people..........as if I don't have enough already.

If you want some hard currency on hand buy gold and silver coins. They might have value when paper does not

I think about that alot, it might get you down the road a little farther, but when things get real bad will anything but barter goods & food and ammo really be worth anything?

Don't have a crystal ball, just thinking about what people will prioritize.

They are going to have to start issuing 1000 bills just so we can fill the gas tank soon. -- maybe it should have bidens picture on it.

I'm thinking about investing in a box car load of toilet paper. The last time we had a huge scare that is what everyone ran out and panic bought.

I wouldn't worry about the shortage of 1'$, 5'$ and 10'$, with this out of control inflation the 1'$, 5'$ and 10'$ will be obsolete soon...

Some stores here have signs up asking for singles if you have them.

Ky coyote hunter, stuff to trade might be better. Shine and tobacco will have value. 22 shells and beans will also. Boots might get real important and horses too.

The shortage is due to the fact that it takes many more of the 1, 5's and 10's to buy anything..... smile

There’s been a shortage of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100 dollar bills in my wallet for as long as I can remember!

For sure, it takes a $100 bill to pay for most things lately.

I saw this on trivia TV a while back:

Which currency bill wears out the fastest? My guess was the $1 bill. I was wrong. It's the $10 bill.

The shortage will be for those who have not learned how to hunt, fish, forage and grow their food. My kids can do all of those things.

It's the start to push us to digital currency.

Copper, brass, and lead will bring the most value.

Gold and silver have been a means of trade for 6000 years. They will always have value.

Can't eat gold or silver -- It doesn'tmake an engine run -- it doesn't heat a house in winter. While I agree it will always have value some things are more important.
