I read through all the getting started FAQs and have been dabbling a little at banks I have accounts with have picked up primarily penny boxes, and dabbled getting one halves box. I am amazed by the amount of grief a reliable customer gets for these simple requests when asked with a friendly attitude. Definitely not a hobby for the shy or people wanting to fit in (no worries there).
Theoretically its only asking for the boxes so I'm not giving attitude, only getting max 1-2 boxes at a time, and don't drop coins off at the bank I pick up from (use TD or Coinstar for that (yeah free amazon ecerts)
So leads to my questions/looking for advice:
Is this typical experience?
What have you done to help make the pickups easier/more routine?
Do you do a sitdown with someone at the bank to try to build a regular pickup schedule/order to be less disruptive and improve chances of getting what you want?
How often are you visiting your main bank(s) and does more frequent help or hurt?
I am hearing a lot of we don't order halves when I ask. Is this common? Some chains better than others here?
Appreciate the next level advice I have been dabbling but would like to maybe move to 1 box of halves and 2-3 boxes of pennies a week if it works out, truly hobby levels I even am ok to break even/lose a little money given the time and gas involved.
