The whole "let's get rid of the things people actually NEED banks for, because those things are not profitable" thing.) I rationalize my behavior by saying that the chain banks are investing my deposit money (and making money off me) so I can use them for things that make ME money (dumping $2,000 in halves every week.) Get yourself two sturdy canvas bags with handles, too...really helps. Sometimes the banks will let you keep the canvas bank bags...which are nice, except when they get full and you have to pick them up. I have four US Census bags that I was given after the Census wore down...canvas, handles, two pockets on the outside. Holds about $1,000 very nicely.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
