A paper money dispensing device stores bills in stacked relation, successively separates the lowermost bill from the stack of bills, and moves the separated bills to an area where they can be dispensed to a patron. That paper money dispensing device automatically senses when two bills stick together and are simultaneously separated from the stack of bills; and it moves those bills to a storage area for safe-keeping, and then separates further bills from the stack of bills and moves those further bills to the area where they can be dispensed to a patron. Where that paper money dispensing device is used to dispense a fixed number of bills, that paper money dispensing device separates the said number of bills from the stack of bills during each cycle of operation and then dispenses the separated bills at the start of the next-succeeding cycle of operation; thereby providing prompt dispensing of the bills to be dispensed during the next-succeeding cycle of operation. Where that paper money dispensing device is used to dispense variable numbers of bills, that paper money dispensing device separates the desired number of bills from the stack of bills and promptly dispenses the separated bills. That paper money dispensing device dispenses all of the bills of the desired number of bills at the same instant, and it folds those bills as they are dispensed; thereby minimizing the likelihood that a patron would inadvertently fail to take all of the bills due him.
