[QUOTE="BigsWick, post: 379218, member: 3534"]I was told it is at the bank's discretion, even at different branches of the same bank. About 4 years ago I began searching halves on a pretty regular basis. My usual bank branch was good about supplying me until one day I went in and the teller told me I couldn't have any more because they were being kept for their commercial customers. "BS" I thought, so I asked to speak to a manager. The manager wanted me to pay $20 a box. I asked how many rolls I could get a week free of charge. We settled on 25. Contrast that with policy at a branch of the same bank, literally directly across the street from my principal branch. At the same time this was going on, the head teller there would supply me with 2 boxes a week free of charge, and a third branch about 3 miles away was getting me a box per week at no charge. About 4 months ago I stopped searching. I needed a break. Now whenever I go into the bank I'm always asked when I'm going to start up again, followed by offers to order me boxes. Thus far I've said no, but will probably get back to it at the end of the summer. Kind of funny how attitudes eventually changed.[/QUOTE]
