[QUOTE="cvicisso, post: 1382187, member: 29382"]I've been doing it long enough now that I should be used to it, but it nevertheless seems to catch me off guard every time... "WHAT DO YOU DO WITH ALL OF THOSE COINS?" A few times (in the 'early days' - :p - I told people I was searching for silver... "REALLY?!... I'll have to try that!" DOH!! I'm all about being friendly and helpful, but now I just created competition for myself, and more [heavy] coin traffic for my bank. Having them order coins for me is by no means a 'right' - and they can easily stop doing it any time (or charge a fee). Asking tellers for halves seems a little more 'safe' because you would think they already know what the deal is, but... quite a few times I've run into a teller who hands over silver and then asks the same question. Anyway, just wondering what creative lines people use, or if everyone is just 'honest.' I just picked up two thousand halves (two boxes) of halves today, and the teller asked me if I collect them. I just smiled and said yes. BTW - they were all skunks.[/QUOTE]
