I used it once and have went back periodically to the site to check my dollar's whereabouts but it has only been tracked once since i spent it and it was only one state over about 180 miles away. And that was over a year ago and no one has entered anything since then. It really is quite an interesting concept if only people would actually enter it into the database when they receive the dollar. Cool to think of how far money travels and who could have been holding that bill, could have been some important person!! Also cool to see what they spent the money on.

I have used Where's George. I rec'd a one dollar bill with a pink Where's George Stamp. I registered however, all of the bills I have registered have not been tracked. Every bill has stopped with me. It's a great idea, if only people would take a minute to post each bill and let us see where our money goes.

Yes, I have just entered a serial number for a one dollar bill, which traveled 1720 + miles over a 30 months.

Yes, I have I still have an account but I dont really use it. I started doing this by finding a dollar bill with a blue stamp that said "WheresGeorge.com", and I started doing this, then I got bored because no one would ever get my bills and type their numbers into the site.

Yes, many times periodically. Sometimes interesting, sometimes not. While legal, the government does not particularly like the tracking.

My daughter wanted to the first couple of times she got one with the stamp on it but she doesn't seem interested anymore and I could care less where my money has been or where it goes why should I care what the electric, gas, water, telephone, insurance or grocery store do with my money, lol!

I have done it on one bill only. It never got recorded a year after I spent it. Don't see any point in using my time that way. But, I will answer questions !!!

Yeah its great to see where the bills have been before they were given to me and where they go after I've spent them. I've only had about 7 of them though. I keep looking for them and hope to enter more as I get them.

I have used wheresgeorge.com, for the most part the farthest I have seen the dollar go is 300 miles.

Yes, it takes a long time to see your money's next stop sometimes. But, overall, it is very interesting.
