Australia, Bermuda, Brunei, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Romania and Vietnam all use (Polymer) Plastic Bank Notes. I am glad to see the change, I hate forgetting a $20 bill in my jeans then off the the washer/dryer. They come out looking very faded, and people think it's fake.....you gotta go to the bank to get a new one :(

Wow I had no idea so many other countries used plastic bills. The news stories made it sound like Canada was pioneering this. I guess its not that big of a deal if so many other countries already use them. Hey Sapphi your from Romania how do you like the plastic bills compared to the paper ones?  Or how about you Rath? Any other VGChartz users from one of those countries?

I'd be interested in hearing how people like the plastic bills compared to the Paper cotton ones.

Plastic bills are great. They're usually in very good nick which is unlike my experience with paper bills in the USA.
