Chase gave me a stack of ¥2000 notes when I pre-obtained some cash in the States before a trip. That caused some confusion when I got there and tried to buy a suica card. And I didn't even realize what was going on until a local coworker was surprised at me having them.

Travelex at airports will also throw these at you. They’re amusing to have on hand.
