Synopsis[]
Beavis and Butt-Head attempt to make counterfeit money by using a copy machine, but it fails to fool anybody except Butt-Head.
Plot[]
One day, Beavis and Butt-Head are frustrated that they don't have enough money to buy snacks from the Maxi-Mart, just a single dollar. Ranting about a "money machine", Beavis gives Butt-Head the idea to photo-copy their dollar at the copy shop across the street to make counterfeit money.
When the duo arrive at the copy shop, they ask the clerk to copy their dollar, but he refuses since it's counterfeiting. The duo lie about it being for a class project, so he lets them to use the copiers in the corner. The boys begin to make several copies of their single dollar, as well as a nickel, and they marvel at their idea. Once they're all printed, the boys crudely cut their "money" out and head back to the Maxi-Mart.
At the Maxi-Mart, Beavis and Butt-Head try to hit on a woman by putting their "money" in the donation jar and claiming to be "helping the kids", but she dismisses them and smacks Butt-Head with her purse when he puts a "dollar" in her bag. When the duo head to the counter to pay for their snacks, the Maxi-Mart clerk isn't fooled by their one-sided, crudely cut counterfeit money and denies them service, threatening to call the police on them. Butt-Head tries to bribe him with more of his "money", but the clerk loses his temper and tears them up, much to the duo's dismay. Beavis tries to open the donation jar, trying to get his "nickel" back, until Butt-Head reassures him that they can make more "money", so the duo tell the clerk that they will return with more and leave.
Back at the copy shop, Butt-Head realizes that they spent their only real dollar on the copies, so the duo go up to the clerk and lie about another class project about sharing in an attempt to con a dollar out of him, with Butt-Head promising to "give it right back".
