Thanks. I am going away in August so hoping that it won't be then and miss out on all the excitement!

It's getting expensive though. A bundle would be $1k. EFTPOS at RBA maxes out at $1k. So only 1 bundle at a time. Unless you rock up with huge amounts of cash to swap. Last year I was able to get a couple at a time and look through them for interesting numbers before redepositing back to the bank. Needs more and more working capital.

I just noticed a problem the moment I clicked on that link, and it's not for anyone under 18. When looking at the new $10 note from a distance, the images inside the translucent strip look like a phallus. Go figure! :laugh2:
