Once you have counted up all your coins, you can move on to your bills or notes. You will basically follow the same method as with the coins, namely splitting the bills into piles of the same denomination and then calculating the value of each pile. The first step is to spread out your bills on the table so you can clearly see each one. Then separate them out into groups.  For example, you could have a pile of $5 bills, one of $20 bills, and so on. Depending on how much cash you have this could be a fairly speedy process and take a little longer. If you have a lot of cash to count, begin with your largest bills. Stack your $100, $50 and $20 bills in their own piles. Then move on to the $10, $5 and $1 bills. Now you have organized your bills into separate piles, all you have to do is go through and calculate the value of each pile. If you have five $20 bills, that's $100. Just like the coins you can go through each pile and note down the value on a sheet of paper and add them all together at the end. If you are more confident in your maths and memory skills, you can calculate the total as you go only writing down the final amount when you get to the end.  Another way to do it is create a table with headings for each bill denomination in which you keep a tally, and then add up the totals. For example, if you have two $50 bills, three $20 bills, four $10 bills, two $5 bills and 6 single dollar bills, your "totals" column should read, "100, 60, 40, 10, 6." You should add all these bill totals together and hopefully come to a total of $216. The final step is to combine the two totals you have for coins and bills respectively. This will give you the total amount of money you are counting. Write the total down and use your records to keep track of your personal finances, and budgets.  If you are going to deposit the money you can place it into special bank deposit bags. You can write the value of the contents on the outside of the bag. For bills, consider paper clipping them to a deposit slip if you plan on depositing the money

Summary:
Organize your bills. Count and record your bills. Combine your bill and coin totals.
