I left work this afternoon after I couldn't stand it there any longer, and took off on a 2 hour, 55 mile round trip CRH spree that I've been plotting for weeks. Stopped at 4 branches of my bank to pick up rolls that they wrap at each branch. My standard order was $200 in dimes and $40 in nickels. Added $30 in cents to that at the final branch.
Also asked for halves from the tray at each branch. The only place that had any was stop #3. I bought $9.50 worth from my teller, then another $1.50 from the other teller on duty. While taking care of that, a third teller appeared from the back and asked if I wanted his too. I said of course, and he brought out $7.50 worth. All of the halves were clad, but I was happy to buy them to get a foot in the door. I didn't want to be selective about it and get them thinking about which ones are valuable if they aren't doing that already.
I came out $1 ahead already on the clad halves, when I discovered the 3rd teller gave me $3.50 in change for a $10 for the $7.50 in halves. Poor kid was so happy to get them out of his tray that he ended up paying for the privilege.
Looking forward to opening more rolls this weekend than I ever have. Excited about getting branch-wrapped rolls too for a change; hoping that by hitting that many different branches, I might strike something really good.
