Sorry for the newb question but can someone please explain a "Road Trip"?

Do you just go to several banks and ask for their halves?

Ive tried this with a few banks and every one of them had just a few, usually less than 5 dollars worth, or at least that's what they told me.

It is hit or mis usually but when they have them buy all they got. Good luck to you.

Yep. I always ask if they have more in the vault.
 
If they say they have no halves in the vault, I always demand that I be able enter it myself for proof. Rarely do they allow that.
 
Oh and don't forget eat as many WHITE CASTLE hamburgers or equivalent you have in your area during your road trip. This will insure your have a very long and memorable roadtrip.

Remeber you always get your best advise from your dad!
 
The teller let me into the vault today to pick up my boxes. I was hoping to see some bags of halves in there.

Always ask if they have any in the *vault*, be sure to keep a bandanna in pocket to wrap the rolls from vault in, they do not like to give away their Bank bags. O' do NOT wear it when you enter Bank even if you do feel sorta like Jesse James hitting all those Banks- just remember you do not use your Bandanna for same reason Jesse and his friends did.
 
A road trip is when you pretty much get in the car, and just drive! Stop at every bank you see, and ask what you're looking for (ie: halves, large dollars, etc.)
 
most here just pick a direction and then either map quest the banks in that area or put it in thier gps which maps out all the banks for you. alot of roadtrippers call ahead to see if they should bother stopping. they also map out where they can dump.
 
I did a couple of "Road Trips" unaided (just drive) and did OK. The best ones were when I took the GPS or phone and searched "Bank" or "Credit Union" and followed the arrows - I found MANY hole-in-the-wall banks and 2 of my best scores were from tiny "kiosk" banks in grocery stores!
