I recall that I noticed that one and just though it was something weird and cute but never gave it more thought.
Perhaps they want you to pay in singles since I've seen alot of stores request them with a sign such saying "WE NEED FIVES AND SINGLES" stuck to
the counter. The probably get sick of running out of them to make change from 20's.
You could have a point there. I personally think it is to embed the subconscious association with the dollar bill and the KFC burger advertised. So
that when you look at the dollar bill you immediately think of the burger, without realising it.
The same thing happens on TV mostly in adverts. Whilst watching TV a person is lured into a hypnotic state, you know what I mean, nothing but the
picture on the screen exists, you forget your surroundings, some people "unable" to move even if they need the toilet etc. Then the adverts come on
and you are so relaxed you think "meh I'll just wait it out", in that relaxed state the subconcious is most receptive to suggestions. The
subconscious remembers everything it has ever seen, but the conscious mind tends to forget. Then, the next time the person goes to do their shopping
at the store, the products that stand out are the ones they can associate with. The ones that somehow feel safe. It is the connectiveness of the
images of the products seen in the gross (outside) with the subtle (interior/subconcious). You see the product and a bingo, that is the one you want,
you don't know why, it just feels right. I am explaining why.
I use the term "you" but I am not meaning "you" specifically EnlightenUp

just the collective "you" of the collective "sheep". Your post
lead me to explain the modus operandi of the media in a little more depth, so I am very greatful for that. It would be good if more people like
yourself in the world would use an intelligent critical eye. For their own sake of course, not mine.
Hey have you ever seen the film "They Live!" ? very good film. We need a pair of those glasses to see some of the subliminals maybe hehe.
Best Wishes.
