<p>[QUOTE="Drago the Wolf, post: 1532060, member: 22476"]Let me tell you one thing I heard about Ikes. While my local credit union "clains" they can NOT order Ikes, I have heard that the big banks can order $1,000 bags of Ikes "when available" I tried asking about this at one bank, I think and it was so long ago, that I don't remember what they told me, but I think the teller wasn't sure. So, try that. Its worth a shot. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Well, thanks for participating in the experiment, ocjoe949.
