I found these at the drugstore last week and took them to some of my favorite tellers, they really seemed to like them!
and at $0.99 each it wasn't a bad investment...

Nice! My last bag of Lindt chocolates cost me seven bucks.

I just bought mine the large Whitman assortment boxes. They were $20 bogo at rite aid last week and $10 off your next purchase. Got 8 for my 4 main banks.
Keep them happy!

I hit up CVS or Walgreens when they have the "Pot of Gold" boxes at buy 1 get 1. I think they are made by Hersheys. I get 'em a regular one and then a dark one. This way the assortments should keep ALL happy. Plus CVS is always giving out coupons so I make use of them, too. And the gals at the bank, they just smile and talk about me blowing their diets.

I stopped giving chocolate.
I did for awhile and the tellers seemed appreciative, but then I think the managers realized or thought they must have been doing me too big a favor, because I was too much appreciate'n their service or was gettin somethin fer nothin and would cut me off soon after!
No more chocolate!

Read walgreens adds as the choclate that is for sale is listed 4.3 oz. for 79 cents= break even would be less that one roll of pure copper. Fwiw

The tellers are seem friendlier on Friday's than Monday's. My one place, the teller emailed me because I usually stop by a couple of times a week but I'm intentionally ignoring them because of the credit card application pressure they put on me every time I stop in. I'm trying to use it as a bargaining chip.
