Bureau of Engraving and Printing gift shop

My kids are priceless to me, of course, but they got a kick out of seeing that they'd equal more than a million dollars in stacked $100 bills!

My daughter added a hundred thousand dollars to her height

by standing on her tippy toes!

For a glimpse of what you'll see on the actual tour, here's a postcard I picked up which shows a couple of the actual machines.
We loved getting a behind the scenes look at how our bills are made and we really loved seeing all that money in right in front of us!! If you're planning a trip to Washington DC, put the Bureau of Engraving and Printing on your list of places to see. (Also, there's another bureau in Fort Worth, Texas, so if that's closer to you, perhaps you can catch the tour there!)
