Face value only. A 2009 $1 bill is too common and too new to have any extra value, even in uncirculated condition.
What is the value of a 1934 A US 10 dollar silver certificate with HAWAII on it?
Please don't assume that because a bill is old it has to be a silver certificate. As your bill states in the banner across the top, it's a Federal Reserve Note.
As of 03/2015 your bill has a retail value of $45 to $75 in average condition, and over $275 if uncirculated.

Do uncirculated 2 dollar bills printed in Fort Worth TX have value?
The Fort Worth facility opened in 1991 and its first run of $2 bills was in 1995, so the bills are too new to be worth much of a premium. Retail values as of 04/2012 run to all of $2.50 or $3.00; a dealer will likely pay face value to a dime extra.

What is the value of a 1935 A Hawaii 1 dollar bill with signatures on the back?
Without seeing your bill it's difficult to determine a value. HAWAII-overprint bills were used in that territory during WWII so they could be declared worthless if captured by the Japanese. Thus it's very possible you have what's called a "short snorter", a bill that was signed by a group of people (usually military) travelling together and saved as a memento.
Depending on the bill's condition and who signed it, a short snorter can be valuable by itself as a collectible, or as a keepsake for the signers' descendants. The best thing to do would be to have it inspected by a currency dealer and/or autograph dealer.
Where can you sell a Federal Reserve Note?
If it's a collectible note you can sell it to a dealer or on eBay. You'll get less from a currency dealer but it would be less hassle unless you already have an eBay store.
However, most FRN's issued over the last 40-50 years or so are either worth face value only, or just a small amount extra. You'd need to look up the bill's value before deciding whether it would make sense to sell it.

Did Sacajawea appear on a US dollar bill?
Sacajawea hasn't been depicted on any 20th or 21st century US paper money, but an interpretive portrait* has of course been on Native American $1 coins issued since 2000.
(*) There are no known pictures of Sacajawea herself, so the coin's sculptor Glenna Goodacre used a Native American college student as her model for a stylized portrait.

Serial Numbers
A bill's serial number is a counter and a security feature. In most cases it doesn't affect a bill's value or help to identify it. Some collectors specialize in bills with low serial numbers (e.g. 00000005) or unusual patterns (12344321) so these can bring above-average prices.
DISCLAIMER: The values quoted are market averages as of the date shown, but may be different for an individual bill due to variations in quality and other factors. Also the wholesale (buying) price of a bill will be less than the selling (retail) price. A reputable currency dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on an in-person inspection.
How much is a 1995 2 dollar bill worth today?
Two dollars.
Normally, currency doesn't become more valuable than its worth unless it's a special, rare kind, or if it's very old - like, over 50 years old. The older, the better.
The picture is just a sticker that was pasted on the bill after it was printed. The US doesn't print bills with pictures of Santa, the Easter Bunny, Elvis, George Bush, or any other non-traditional image.
If the sticker damaged the bill it's now only worth face value; if it's not damaged it may be worth a bit more but 1981 is too new for an uncirculated bill to carry a significant premium.
