[QUOTE=ArchiveGuy] [Track them](http://www.wheresgeorge.com/) after spending them. [/QUOTE] I was going to suggest Where’s George too. Additionally, once you register them, turn them into moneygami and leave each one in a random spot for someone else to find. Then see if they let you know how they found it via Where’s George. ---

If they’re fresh, crisp one dollars bills get them padded. We like to do this when going somewhere for vacation. It always freaks people out when you pull a fresh one from the top of the pad. “Where do you get those?” Vary your response to confound your local bank, the Treasury, or the FBI. ---

Well, you’re pregnant so you can go ahead and practice this: Take $8 out and give it to the manager of Wal-Mart. Take $5 out and give it to the receptionist at a pediatrician’s office. Take $2 out and give it to the pharmacist. Take $3 out and just tear it into shreds because there’s always something. Wipe your butt with the remaining $2 because that’s your emergency diaper money right there. 🙂 ---
