[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 1124893, member: 27832"][b]Oh my[/b] Tried to hit a couple of new banks this afternoon, only they weren't actually where I thought they were -- not a bank to be seen in any of the increasingly shady neighborhoods I passed through. So, I cruised back by my favorite. They were pretty busy, but I managed to get my favorite teller. Unfortunately, she had no halves; neither did any of the other front-line tellers. "Wait," she said, "let me ask the other teller" -- the one who was juggling three lanes of drive-through traffic. After five or ten minutes of waiting (I stood aside and let her help other customers), she caught that teller's attention, and she said "I have THIRTY dollars' worth. But you don't have to buy them all if you don't want to!" They were in new, crisp wrappers (CWR), but I figured I needed to be a good sport and take what I'd asked for -- I went ahead and bought all three. Well, the rolls were crisp and clean, but the coins inside were kind of ugly -- dirty, green spots on some of them, and quite a bit of... [I]tarnish[/I], as it turned out.
