Bulk bags getting slow

Well seems more and more these days that picking up bags is getting a little hard to do. Always seems like I just miss them and brinks or loomis gets to them first. For some reason more and more banks just want them out of the vault. So I have made arrangements at 2 banks for $400 per order for awhile... Hopefully I don't start getting new boxes. I also kind of hate to do it this way since it takes more time but, maybe a wall of pennies in my garage will look cool... :mrgreen:

The bank where I get my bags has a regular Loomis pick up every Thursday. One thursday I got there just in time to see the truck pulling out. Since then I have made an effort to get there on Wednesday afternoon. Also, If I can't go Wed I call them and say I am coming in on Thursday and they hold them for me.

I know that they like to sell to me because I don't charge them to haul them away.

Knibloe is right. If you are going to be a regular attraction at any bank branch, you have got to ask when they get rid of their bags and be there the day before.
