Just got back from a 90 minute CRH jaunt. Dumped some dimes, got a stack of $50s, planned to hit several banks on the way to my final destination: the lone branch of my main pickup bank that I had never yet visited. The plan was to get $50 in dimes at each stop along the way, plus whatever halves they'd give me, and then get a box or at least a couple $100 trays in dimes at the last stop.
The result: Had no problem getting $50 worth of dimes at every stop along the way. Never got asked once whether I had an account. Also got $50 in halves rolls and $2 loose (no silver). Then I get to my pickup branch, ask about a box or a few trays of dimes (which I've never had a problem with at the 8 other branches), and they respond as if I'm trying to rob the place. I had to *prove* that I was a customer with my account number, just to get the same $50 in dimes I had got at every other bank no-questions-asked.
I guess maybe I shouldn't have gone for the "whole box" at a branch I'd never set foot in before. But I've done that before without being looked at funny. You just never know I guess.
I did get 2 silver Roosies out of $170 searched so far, and have another $80 to look through later.
