@gill3814 - that's great that you have a good rapport with your bank and tellers. I guess I just don't go into my local branch often enough and when I do there's typically a line so I don't want to chew up too much time with the tellers. At this point I only have my script down for asking for halves and dollar coins; perhaps I can tweak that request to include any "odd" paper bills too and see what works.
Again, great hits here! Those are very nice notes, IMO.
