When I was 14, I got my first computer. It came with a scanner so I, being the smarty that I am, decided to Print of 20 dollar bills and go to kmart with them.

me and a buddy of mine printed off the bills (btw, it's hard to get them so it's even front and back). We did this the night before the 'job'. We laid in my room thinking of what we were gonna buy with all these twenties.

Well, we had the money ready to go the next morning but as we're walking to kmart we realize that we didn't cut the money close enough. So we go inside the store and use real money to buy a pair of scissors. Then we go outside and sit on a hill right next to kmart and cut the money so it looks better.

We weren't sure what we were gonna buy. My friend suggested this box of basketball cards that was like 34 bucks. Now this money felt like paper, and it really didn't look right either, iuno what we were thinking. There were 2 checkout lanes open (a young kid and an old lady) We chose the young kid for some reason. My buddy is behind me in line.

I put the box of cards on the belt thingy and get ready for the moment of truth. He says "34.something" and I hand him 2 fake twenties. I had just gotten paid from my [censored] bus boy job at some lil cafeteria so i had prob 80 bucks in my wallet of real cash. I decide to hand him 2 fake instead of 1 fake and 1 real. Not really sure if it woulda mattered. The kid looks at the money and then shows another clerk. At this point I know i'm [censored]. My friend had already realized that and had backed up and went to another line and bought tictacs and left the store.

So there I am, a 14 year old kid paying for basketball cards with fake 20's. The kid goes "this is fake"... thinking on my feet I go "what, i just got these from the bank!"

So i whip out my wallet and flash my 4 real twenties to him. I said "here, are these fake?" and he looks at all of them and says no. I go, "here" and I gave him 2 real twenties. I ask for the 2 fake ones back and he said that he has to keep them.

After I bitch out my friend for leaving me there, we go home and split up the basketball cards. To this day I haven't received his half of the money, even tho he got half the cards.

Not really sure what we were thinking, but I'm lucky I didn't get into any kind of trouble.

ahhhh lesson learned.
