I recieve them occasionally when I've sold an alpaca.
A what?
It's a small sort of lama which I breed professionally. They are very expensive, and most payments are done in cash.
I once payed somebody in England with 110 nots of 500.... but ofcourse, when I didn't use EBT....
Have 12 of them in my list now....
If you wonder how these alpaca's look like see my website at

I visited last summer a Alpaga breeding center in the Ardèche-valley ; he was doing the same job as you did. It was great for adults and children to visit such farm...
But I am not buying an alpaga... I first need to make some money, and pay for my house...

Only once. They gave me one such note in money exchange in Saint-Petersburg and it was really hard to find there to pay with it (finally, I bought train tickets for approx. 250 euro). I really felt myself as Mark Twan hero.

Man, didn't they get angry?!
In
