The penny may be history; but is scented cash next?
Some Canadians think the Bank of Canada has been circulating a new but familiar smell along with its upgraded plastic bills: maple syrup!
Dozens of people have contacted the bank asking about a secret scratch-and-sniff patch that apparently smells like maple syrup on the new bank notes.
Despite the firm belief from some Canadians, the bank is setting the record straight and says no scent has been added.
