Australia has plastic money. Nobody told me this. I'm afraid.

I just don't think I'll ever let littlealex live it down. *snicker*

I also want to see it. I have a visual in my head, and I wonder how close I am. What colour is it? What happens if it sits out in the sun and it melts? Can you use it in liquid form? And what about people who are allergic to some polymers? It gets scarier and scarier.

Five dollars are pink/purple, Tens are blue with a bit of green, Twenties are red, Fifties are yellow, and Hundreds are green.

It doesn't melt.

There is no liquid money, only plastic.

I don't know about them but I guess they're screwed. Or they'd have to wear gloves or something. I'm sure the inventors of the money went through and thought about it all.

It doesn't melt? All plastic melts. It's liquid to begin with.

Apparently Oz!Plastic is somehow Different from other Plastic (just like their calcium-free cheese).

Hell, I had uniform skirts made out of polyester that would melt if you sat on the radiator long enough. Plastic melts. 'Nuff said.

It might melt, but it wouldn't melt in the sun. Unless you're doing something really stupid to your money, it won't melt.
