Which banks allow buying halves?

[jheuerman]

I'm new to this and I'm starting with halves. However, I've come across a problem. All the banks I go to say they will not let me buy boxes of halves because they dont allow noncustomers to do that or they have a really low limit. So my question is, which banks out there allow me to buy boxes without having to have an account?

Thanks

Why not just open up an account?

Friendly Suggestion and very cheap.
Go to fridge, take out cold beverage of your choice, find a comfortable chair, a telephone and a phonebook.
Look up banks and start calling. Ask for the vault teller or an assistant manager. Ask them if they can order halves for you and if they charge any fees.
Make good notes and depending upon your research, you should have plenty of banks to go visit.
Unless you live in BFE, there should be plenty of banks to choose from.
Most banks would like you to at least have an account with them but not all of them.

Don't ever be afraid of asking questions here, we all had to start somewhere. JP

so open some accounts! seems logical to me, you want the service of the bank be a member of the bank!

I get my boxes of halves from a Chase bank in my area and I don't have an account there. I think they're assuming I have an account since I always use phrases like, "I'll buy the box with cash today instead of filling out a form for a withdraw". If they ever do find it, it might not be pretty

Go open an account-
If you want a free checking with a LOW to NO required minimum try a credit union or a bank that has 3-4 local branches. I have recently been to two bank chains that truly have free checking and good customer support trying to attract the local market! Just do some research, and open some accounts. I have 7 now, the more good bank accounts you have, the more places you can dump and more pickup banks!
You can never have too many good dump banks(Learned that from CnC)!
