Newbie Dumping

Postby ardorlan » Fri Jul 22, 2011 11:44 am

I walked into a wells fargo, waited in line for my first dump.
handed the teller a bucket with 196$ in Halves, she took it over to a machine and about 2 or 3 mins later came back with 196$ in cash.

about 4 days later went to the same bank stood with 285.50 in halves, stood in line, and waiting for the next teller when one lady said "just cashing in change" and I said yes. 3 mins later got $285.50.

So far dumping as been really easy. 300$ in Halves is pretty heavy for some of these teller ladies.
I would like to dump $500 at a time once I get going, Figuring I will put 250$ in each of 2 bags.

I guess my point is to all the newbie out there, dumping at a bank so far as been easy for me, I am not even a member at my dump bank.

You should be a member of your dump bank, in my opinion. Also, I've not had any problems dumping +/-$2000 at a time, in halves. Banks seem to be very nice around my parts. Do you sort pennies? Anyways, keep up the sorting. :)

I use six branches of 3 credit unions for dumps. I use 3 branches of one bank, one branch of one bank, 34 branches of one CU, 3 of another CU, and am unafraid to walk into any branch of banks ad CUs' I am not a member of to ask for coin. I just started this a few months ago and I like the way silver is stacking up.

Every bank in my area asks if you're a member if asking for more than coins in the till...
