Hello Fellow CRHs,
On my one hour lunch break today I had to drive about 15 miles into the city to deposit some money in my mom's bank account. She is moving to Florida and needed some extra cash until she gets down there and starts her new job. Since I was already going by a few banks I figured I would make it a mini road trip of sorts.
T-60 minutes...let's go!
Bank #1: A few weeks back a head teller at a small branch in a bad part of town told me to call her once a week to check and see if they had any halves so I called her on the way and she told me she had two rolls. I stopped there first and got the rolls and buttered her up really good -- I think she likes me!
Anyways, I asked if she would take down my name and number and call me if she ever gets any in any halves - she seemed really happy to do it. The rolls were skunks but this is my second branch where the head teller took down my name and number and promised to call me if they get in any halves or big dollars! 
T-35 minutes left...keep going!
Bank #2: I then stopped at my mom's bank and while making the deposit I ask the teller if they have any half dollars, the head teller checks with all of the other tellers and tells me no. She had a very bubbly personality and liked talking so she then proceeds to tell me (without any prompting) every once in a while some guy drops off a whole bunch of rolls (a few hundred dollars worth) and that the guy says they are his "poker winnings."
Interesting line...looks like that branch is someone's dump bank. 
I probably won't stop there too often to look for halves, but I may make it one of my dump banks too!
T-25 minutes...I want silverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!
Bank #3: Stopped at another branch, they had $10.50 in loose halves - all clad! :P
T-20 minutes...running out of time!!!
Where is all the silver
Bank #4: $7.50 in loose halves
As she dumped them onto the counter and counted them two by two I could see the silver passing from the uncounted pile into the counted pile -- the teller didn't even give the lighter colored halves a second glance! 
1 90%er and 4 40%ers!!! 
She asked if I like halves and I said "YES" and I asked if she would take down my name and number and call me when they get in any halves or big dollars - she seemed happy to do it too! That makes three local banks that will call me when they get in any halves or big dollars - let's hope these two new connections pay off like my first one! Here is a sweet little pic of my sweet little score (need a better camera though)! Lunchtime success with no time to spare -- I was ten minutes from work and got back just in the nick of time!
