As stay-at-home orders took effect to slow the spread of the coronavirus, many restaurants and bars had to temporarily close or switch to delivery and takeout only, forcing owners to lay off or furlough employees.

But instead of hitting walls in search of ways to help, some bar owners are scaling them — carefully removing dollar bills that were taped or stapled there over the years and donating them to their employees.

Here is a look at some of them.

Tybee Island, Ga.

‘The answers are on the wall’

The Sand Bar usually bustles with customers looking for $2 Jell-O shots, tater tots and live music.

New and repeat customers have been writing “love notes” on dollar bills and taping or stapling them to the walls of the business in this barrier island city about 18 miles from Savannah.
