Yesterday, my branch Credit Union manager called me to go to another branch to get 95 MIGHTY IKEs 71 D sixteen 72 P two 72 D eight 74 P one ~`~`~` Circulated but Grease strike. 74 D seven 77 P one 77 D five 78 P two 78 D two 76 (D-P) (Type 1-2) fifty one. Most will grade MS. Some are circulated, some are AU. I when back to my beloved CU Branch Manager today, to bring a bag of chocolates. She was out to lunch. Her actions tell me she is a faithful bird dog. About 5-6 months ago the call came in for a similar score AT THE SAME BRANCH. Belive there might be a shot at more IKEs in the future. Maybe some one in that area is DUMPING a hundred here, and a hundred there. I spent a lot of (kindness-friendship) time with her, and it is paying off big time  Edited by Domain555

I passed on 145 Ikes about a year ago, I normally buy when offered. They were gone by the next week. Wonder what might have been.
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors...

UP-DATE
Have just made up a bag of chocolates for the branch that HAD the IKEs. They need to know I thank and appreciate them too.
Difficult drive for me, but wish to get proactive independent action directly from that branch also. Also leaving my phone number with the chocolates. The more eyes (friends) you have working for the better.
Be nice to the tellers an even nicer for the Managers and Head Tellers

UP-DATE ~`~`~` again Just delivered the chocolate stuff to the "other" branch. WOW WOW WOW. Head Teller called me by name, with smiles. She said: Would you like 2 more? But first let me check the other tellers to see if they have any more. At this point I am having chest pains and shortness of breath. Only 2 IKEs in the bank. But she went on to say: I have your name, (and phone number) and I will call you directly when we get 'em.Building a good Credit Union relationship (at two branches) is starting to pay off for me. The 2 IKES were circulated, but the hope of easier to get IKES, without starting my car is over the top.  |

In my case I was working mostly with my bank, because back then I was getting $1,000 bags for FACE. But no more.  Then I turned most of my efforts to my Credit Union, and it is working for a few coins at a time. |

Domain, they appreciate the chocolates, and they will hold the big Eisenhowers for you, but they will keep the silver Ikes and Morgans for themselves.

Ya think When I could no longer get $1,000 bags, my Morgan, Peace, ASE. .999 stuff, .400 stuff, ect., is-was over. However, hope springs eternal, particularly with the .40% issues. In the last 10-11 days I have received, 2 + 7 + 10 + 95. That's 114 total IKEs. by working relationships with chocolate; and dare I say a smile & charm.   |

Domain555,
You still haven't broken the code to get unlimited $1000 bags of Ikes? I'm hoping you can do it!!
