WINONA, Minn. – Two youngsters picked up some goodies at their neighborhood Kwik Trip and paid with a $20 bill. Later the manager discovered the bill was counterfeit. The next day the same kids came back, picked up a second batch of goodies, and presented a $20 bill. This time it didn’t work. The clerk called the cops. They took the kids home for a talk with the parents. It turned out the kids may not have realized the bills were fake. As best the parents could figure it out, an older brother had bought the bogus bills online, and the little tykes had helped themselves: “They sure looked real.” The parents agreed to reimburse the store.
