2,000 yen bills find few fans
Quite a few people may wonder where the 2,000 yen bank notes have gone since they came out in 2000.
"I've hardly ever seen a 2,000 yen note over the past six years," said Kyoko Kanda, 24, an office worker in Tokyo.
"I keep one as a keepsake, but that's all I need," she said. "I don't want to keep them in my wallet because they are not convenient, as there are so few vending machines or ATMs that will take them."
Kanda's opinion seems to represent the attitude of many other people who avoid using the so-called millennium bank notes.
