.... held together with sellotape!
Damn these blasted things, some person in the past has obviously teared it by accident, or it's usually a really manky one past it's sell by date and couldn't hold itself together anymore after passing between a million sets of hands. I'm only annoyed cos I happen to receive one from my local Costco during my stock buying. Next destination, my regular visit to Wing Yip Supermarket - I go twice a week minimum, and half the staff know me by my first name - where upon trying to pay for my goods. Mr manky, sellotape'd fiver comes out my back pocket to pay for my goods.... cue woman behind the till puts fiver under black light for checks, followed by a nudge nudge wink wink to supervisor for advice, and they refused the fiver on the grounds that they could not read the serial numbers clearly.
I still have the fiver by the way, whilst the numbers are worn, they are most certainly readable and this is the respect I get for being a customer for 8years+ and if you include my dad, it's 30years+ custom!
