[QUOTE="Zzyzzyth, post: 834170, member: 21495"]Probably made a rookie mistake today. I hit the ATM and withdrew $100 and I went in to my local bank and started asking for rolls of coins. I asked for half dollars first and she said she had none. I started there attempting to do math in my head thinking $10/roll and working my way down from the hundred. When she said she didn't have any, I knew she had quarters, so I started working my way up. "How many rolls of 'pennies' (thinking I needed to speak her language) can I get?" "How many do you want?" "How many can you spare?" "How many do you want?" "As many as you can spare." At this point she tells me $20 and seems really aggravated. So, I tell her I'll take them along with 6 rolls of quarters. At this point, I didn't have the heart to ask for anything else. So, now I have plenty to do this weekend, but what am I going to do when I'm ready to redeposit what I don't want and I'm ready for more? I should have consulted you guys to begin with. I don't want them to dread seeing me come through the door. As many of you know, I have only recently started collecting and I have been banking with them for years. This is the first time I have ever walked in and asked for so much coinage. Any coinage, for that matter. How do I handle this in the future and why don't they have half dollars?[/QUOTE]
