I've never thought of that. I remember riding to work one day, having a sidewall blow up, and using a folded up (several times) piece of paper to hold it in place. Now that you mention it, a $5 note would have been a faster and more effective solution. And unlike the paper, it could also be used to provide refreshments to ward off the evil bonk-monster in an emergency.
