ran into a newbie CRH'er today
got off work early, and hit a few banks in a part of town I usually don't get to. At one bank I have an account at, I held the door for a young lady carrying a Brinks halves box. There were two tellers open, so we both went up at once. To bargain for time, I asked for my balance to see what she was doing. She told the teller that she was supposed to deposit the halves (for someone else, I gathered), but didn't know how to go about it. She opens the box, and there's $500 of loose coins.
The teller withholds a smile, and tells her she needs to wrap them all. Gives her a big stack of wrappers, and out the door she goes. After getting my balance, I pick up some dimes and confirm that they don't have any (other) halves, and leave.
On the down side, looks like yet another new CRH'er in my area. On the up side, I'm guessing having to reroll 49 or 50 rolls of halves - more than likely after getting skunked - may well kill any interest in the hobby before it begins.
Either way, the competition is increasing.
