Weird shaped box of halves

[Pennysaved]

I went to one of my regular pick up banks and picked up $2500 in halves. Usually the boxes are square and have there are 2 stacks of halves on top of each other. Today, one of the boxes was one level rectangular and had holes in the top so you could see the halves. The wrappers were yellow and white.

The teller said she had never seen a box like that before and neither had I.

Is it strange to get a different type of box from the same bank?

It was a nice box I found 22 40% halves.

Sounds like it could have been an old style box. Nice score tho

The bank switched their supplier, brown squarish boxes with brown wrappers are from Brinks, flat rectangular boxes with yellow wrappers are from String & Son.

I've had some of those NF String yellow and white wrappers...and been skunked on a few hundred $$$.

How could the bank switch suppliers if I got 4 square boxes and 1 flat rectangular box? Wouldnt they have been all flat if they switched?

Guess I don't understand the distribution system. Do they store boxes and maybe the flat box was stored somewhere for a while and it just ended up being sent out now?

Not sure but sometimes with pennies, ill get the clear roll boxes and in the same order there will be the peek a boo boxes too.

Every Bank around here has rectangular boxes. Never have seen a square box after zillions of boxes.

Same here that's all I have ever picked up around here no matter which bank I go to is the rectangle boxes. I have never seen a square box.

Most of the banks in my area have the flat rectangular boxes. Citibank and Capital One however seem to have the square (2 tier) boxes. Overall I'd say I've had more success with the square ones, but really I think it's all a crapshoot.

One bank that we have been picking up 2 boxes a week from for a few months (always square boxes) the other day gave out 2 rectangle boxes. The lady said "thats what came today...I'm not sure why"

The more I play this game the more I learn the only rule to live by is "The more you sort, the more you find"

My pickup bank supplies me with both kinds of half boxes and three different pennie boxes...never know what I am getting until they bring'em out....I am with...

"The more you sort, the more you find"

Where I am I gave up on the one bank that had the square boxes; I prefer the rectangles.
