  In bolehland, there's 2 illegal toll plaza at farmway

  The 2 of them are 500m apart along a dirt farmway track w/ a barricade and toll fee board. 1 collects RM10, e other collects RM5 from lorries.

  The govt went to clear e 'toll' plaza away, but it came back

  I was shopping at BHG at Century Square just now.... got a few ten-dollar notes as change for some stuff I bought. I just flipped through the notes to make sure my change was correct and stuffed the whole lot down my pocket since I was in a hurry....

  Then much later on, when I was at Parkway Parade, I took the notes out of my pocket....

  Guess what.... one of the ten-dollar notes was cleanly cut right down the middle. 

  It wasn't a tear because the edges were clean and not jagged. Hell, it was one of the new polymer notes which are difficult to tear (accidentally or not). 

  If I wasn't so busy, or so far away from Tampines, or the note had been bigger, I'd have marched back to the store there and created a huge ruckus....

  watched CNA news...dun understand something...

  when the elephant decides to go it's own way and not listen to the trainer, they think the elephant runs amok..and usually put down..

  how about pple dashes here and there knocking pple too, should they be put down too...

  grrr... not fair to the animals..:(

  It's still legal tender (no matter what the cashier you give it to in the future says) and you can tape it back together.

  Bank wont accept... U need to head down to MAS, but MAS will only refund half the value...

  I've seen someone made the same mistake but she accept a torn $1000 note instead... End up luckily her whole team decide to split the cost...
