                  I've not been to Canada in too long. What do you mean plastic? It's plastic foil in the shape of a paper bill?

                            Plastic money can't feel good in underwear, either. LOL

                                  What does plastic money feel like? How rigid is it?

                                    @Dominica Think thick saran wrap - it's extremely tough but you can still wad it up into a ball. It's really awesome, I highly recommend it! You can put it through the washer and dryer with zero ill effects. Very thin so you can have a thinner wallet (not that anyone uses notes these days). You can not physically tear one with your bare hands - it's impressive.

                                      Oh, neat! What a good idea. I wonder how much more it costs to produce?

                                        @Dominica They're a bit more than the cotton blend you're used to but they last 10 times longer (or more). I wasn't joking below, banks are sanitizing them and de-wrinkling them and they look new again.

                                        I was very sceptical when they arrived but now I prefer them over the old money.
