* ''Literature/HomeroomsAndHallPasses'' has a semi-accidental version. Albiorix can do the WhatHaveWeEar trick via actual magic, pulling the coins from a pocket dimension. It turns out they are the right size to use as slugs in the school's vending machines.

* Averted in "Literature/NoNeedForACore?". While [[ADungeonIsYou Living Dungeons]] are quite capable of reproducing coinage exactly, experience has taught the elder of the two cores to only create raw metals or finished goods, never currency. A stable economy for the local kingdom(s) is good for a dungeon's health; you want a steady flow of trainees and experienced adventurers, not desperate armies of ragtag people.

* Discussed in the ''WesternAnimation/FairlyOddparents'' episode, "Nectar of the Odds". When Timmy tries to devise a way to get tickets to see "Crash Nebula: On Ice", he suggests that Cosmo and Wanda poof up the money to buy the tickets. Wanda immediately shoots down this idea by saying that it's counterfeiting, to which Timmy sarcastically points out that it's bad.

There's even a rule in Da Rules that is against using magic to wish for money as seen in a couple episodes.
