This James Bond book has M dining at his club and paying with a Β£5 note as always because it's the club's policy to give members only "freshly minted money" as change. Honestly, one of the coolest club perks I've ever heard of.

We've done that. It did work. We used a mail order compounding pharmacy that wasn't *totally* outrageous.

It's a Marty with sour cream and guacamole and it's $3 more.
