And all I could think of was the rest of that box... So I went back at 4:00 pm to open an account. The head teller was gone but her replacement recognized me from the morning. She knew what I wanted and gave me the halves without making me open an account. THANK YOU! After all that I did not find the 30 full rolls of bens, barbers and walkers I was dreaming about.
