The box of halves was pretty good, gave up four 90%ers and eleven 40%ers:

1964 x 4

Thanks! Yeah, I've come into a nice silver vein apparently. Hopefully it keeps up.

I've got nine total branches, across four different banks, that I pick up from. Three different logistics companies feed those banks: Garda, Shields Business Solutions, and Dunbar.

Although, one of the branches has told me they will stop ordering halves effective May 1st. So that's a bummer because I was picking up four boxes a week from them.

I'm currently trying to shop around for a bank sourced by Brinks so that I can pull from all of the suppliers in my area. I have yet to see a Loomis truck driving around, but if or when I do I will try to find a bank that they supply so as to cover all the bases.

Nice box! Hope there's more! I thought this week was going to be bad for me because last week was so good but, I was wrong, did my first 12 boxes for the day and got 52 keepers out of one and 41 out of another, going to pick up 6 more now, hoping to find the rest of the dump! HH, Maverick.
