When you perform bill in lemon, the bill usually comes out slightly damaged due to the acidic nature of the lemon juice. Most bills stay fine because of the quality of the paint, but they typically fade away. You end up with slightly faded money. It's better to use your own money for that.

I deface (tear) someones money in every one of my shows for the burned bill routine. I know that many times there have been police officers in the audience and I have actually had an officer on stage and done it with their money on several occassions. Even though it's apparently illegal, no action was ever taken against me.

Having said that, at the end of the routine I always give them an undamaged bill from my wallet. I tape the damaged one up and spend it myself. I would never want to risk having a person who was kind enough to come up on stage and participate in the show, to have any problems with a bill I defaced and returned to them.

Did you ever stop to think that those "people" as you call them, just might want to keep a piece of strange?
Don't play the bleeding heart crap if you don't mean it!

I thought as long as you didn't deface the bill with intent to defraud someone it was legal. Just depends on the intentions of you action.

There is a webpage called wheresgeorge.com. You can track your paper money by joining the webpage and even recieving a rubber stamp that says wheres george to stamp your bills. This is not considersd defacing the bill and its done all the time.
