We've had polymer notes for going on 30 years now, and they're fucking fantastic. Pretty much unforgeable, if you miss one in your pocket they go through a washing machine completely undamaged, and (importantly in Australia) you can stick them in your pocket when you go into the surf, and have money on you for a coffee when you get out. It all depends on what you're used to - when we took our kids overseas, they couldn't believe how shitty and beat up paper banknotes looked.
