<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TOLS196024, post: 65890, member: 3884&quot;]I&#039;m going to let you guys in on a little banking secret (just don&#039;t tell my boss).&nbsp; When your bank tells you that they &quot;can&#039;t&quot; order State Quarters or the new nickels, what they&#039;re really mean is they won&#039;t order them.&nbsp; Most banks do not deal directly with the Federal Reserve.&nbsp; Rather, they deal with private companies, ie Brinks, AT, or a whole host of others.&nbsp; These companies deliver and pick up money along thier routes.&nbsp; Therefore, odds are that the money at your local bank didn&#039;t come from the Fed, but the Seven Eleven down the road.&nbsp; So, in order for the bank to get something from the Fed, the head teller has to fill out another form (perish the thought! A whole form!!).&nbsp; So, quite frankly, most of them simply couldn&#039;t be bothered to take the time.&nbsp; Where I work, however, corporate makes each branch order the new quarteres from the Fed to keep customers happy.&nbsp; So when my head teller sits down and fills out that form, I&#039;ll make sure she orders an extra box for me.&nbsp; Ah!! Sweet Revenge!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
