Using 'Funny Money' For Training

Question: 
This question is in regards to teller training. I have always used laminated play money in my tills when training new tellers. I was wondering if anyone out there knows of a source for "full size" fun money? The little stuff just doesn't seem real enough! If anyone has a better idea, I would love to hear it.
Answer: 

Treasury Department regulations prohibit the manufacture, distribution or use of "full-sized" replica money. You can, however, create "funny money" that has the same dimensions as "real money" if it doesn't replicate actual currency and can't possibly be confused with the "real" stuff.

You can create your own "funny money" using a desktop publishing program -- and visit a teacher's store. These stores often carry "funny money" that teachers use in classroom exercises.
