You might try going to a few banks and ask the tellers, if they have any IKEs? I got 80 that way one time. And more than a dozen, at an other bank. I agree that $1.75 is outrageous. My LCD only ask $1.10 (Currently).

While you are at the (few) banks, speak to the manager or head teller, and ask (beg) to get a BAG.

My approch at new banks, is to ask what I need to do (business wise) to get bags on a continuing basis?

It's like fishing. If your plug is in the boat, your not FISHING.

November 03, 2014, I sent an email to Ms Bank Manager, asking for a bag.

TODAY she "OPENED & READ" it.

My guess is she has been ignoring my request for BAGS.

Now that The Head Teller has come into the action (last Friday), The manager, at least opened my last email to her.

This is a copy of the 2 week old email

RUSSIA AZUL says hello this morning.

He has complete run of the house and has found all his high "perches" for his
cat naps.

The top of my file cabinets in my computer room, seems to be his favorite :)

RUSSIA speaks Ike dollar language, and he is meowing for a new bag of IKEs

Meow, Meow, Meow.

signed, RUSSIA AZUL and DOMAIN555




I am taking all this current activity as better than just silence.

I've been askin my tellers but no luck so far. I definitely couldn't afford to order a bag. The most I have in my coin roll hunting pile is $100 for a box of nickels.

Yes, a $1,000 BAG is in fact one thousand dollars.

If you have $100 cash in hand, maybe you could find a person who might have $900 to help you.

The other 900 coins are in fact $900 of legal currency.

There would be no risk to your friend-helper-person.

Did not get a bag, as planed-hoped.

But did go to another branch. Got (2) Ikes, and the teller said she would try for one bag. Learned some new INFO on what may be A-The key in ordering. If it works, will share.

Plan to go to other branches. Just need to keep trying. Keep asking question.

Respectfully I do know more than many-most bank employees

I am more than a little frustrated.
