The short answer is about 2200 pounds, or quite literally OVER ONE US TON! Actually to be precise here, they would weigh 2204.622621 pounds, or one standard metric ton ("tonne") - a heck of a lot of weight!
I guess that would make it impossible to carry around $1 million in singles...well I suppose if you used a pickup truck...but I digress, I guess it would be much better to use $100 bills, as that would cut it down to only 22.046226 pounds (given you've got a million in cash that is)!
OK, so how did I get to that figure, you ask? Take a look below (and consequently feel free to check my math as it's not always my strongest subject).
Given that a dollar bill (actually any denomination bill) weighs 1 gram, it stands that 1 million dollar bills would weigh 1 million grams.
There are 453.59237 grams in a pound - and therefore the same number of dollars per pound.
1,000,000 / 453.59237 = 2204.622621
Conclusion: 1 million dollar bills = 2204.622621 pounds!
Using the same math if we made it $1 million in $100 bills (which is 10,000 of them) it would weigh a little bit over 22 pounds (22.04622621 to be exact).
The math on that is either the original 2204.622421 pounds / 100 = 22.04622421
OR - the long way to check that is 10,000 $100 bills would weigh 10,000 grams. 10,000 / 453.59237 = 22.04622621 pounds.
NOTE: I found the weight of a bill by looking on the internet, and I think it may even have been here on wiki actually.
One U.S. $20 bill weighs one gram. That makes 50,000 $20 bills to make $1 million, which would weigh 110.23 pounds.
One dollar bill (or any American bill for that matter) = 1 gram. 1,000,000 bills = 1,000,000 grams. 453.6 grams = 1 pound, so (1,000,000 / 453.6) 1,000,000 bills = 2,204pounds, or one metric ton ("tonne")
100,000 $100 bills would weigh about 22 pounds or 10 kilograms.
The weight of one million U.S. dollar bills is approximately 2,204.62 pounds. This calculation is based on the weight of a single bill, which is about one gram. Since there are 454 bills in a pound, multiplying the weight of a single bill by one million gives us the total weight.
No, it would not be possible to fit 1 million dollars in 1 dollar bills in a standard suitcase. One million dollars in 1 dollar bills would weigh approximately 2,040 pounds, which is much more than any suitcase could hold.

100 pounds
All US paper currency is the same dimensions and weighs the same. A US bill weighs one gram. Thus one million, one dollar bills will weigh 1000000 grams or 1000 Kilograms.
One million dollars in $50 bills consists of 20,000 bills. A single $50 bill weighs about 1 gram, so 20,000 bills would weigh approximately 20,000 grams, or 20 kilograms (about 44 pounds).
