I had a major Ag score yesterday. I was picking up pennies from my source bank yesterday and the teller asked me if I wanted $50 in halves. I snapped them right up. All 100 coins were Ag! (See the silver thread for pics) I'm going back to that bank tomorrow to pickup my boxes of coins. I want to take some chocolate to the tellers. Any suggestions? Thanks

The chocolate coins in the mesh bag. They are at Walgreens.
They also have the $100,000 chocolate bar at Walgreens.
Buy enough for each teller. The investment will go a long way in building a relationship with the tellers |

Chocolate is always popular with the tellers. I also bake cookies for mine.
Pretty sure they can't accept real coins.  |

That will certainly get you on the board over on the silver thread. It's like Silver Santa was just a little late this year.. but he really delivered!  |

| Lindt chocolate truffles...the coins are cute but cheap and do not taste that good. If you want to be remembered go for the nice stuff. |

Absolutely. If it is worth doing, it is worth doing right. Don't give them the waxy tasting, formaldehyde laced made in China crap.

Chocolate Reserve Note, ie, Mickey Money.
These are made to look like a 100 Dollar Bill with Mickey Mouse in the middle and it says Chocolate Gourmets of America.
They come in this wrapper with four chocolates or you can get a huge box that has the individual chocolates in it and I think the box looks like money too.
These are premium chocolate with a mint truffle center that is delicious. Everyone that I have suggested try this bar absolutely loves them. They are addictive.
If you aren't near one of their parks, I believe you can do a mail order for these.
Congrats on the silver score!!! |

| Today I just dropped off $900 in zinc pennies. One teller held the door for me, the bank manager helped me get them out of the SUV, another teller told me to bring as more if I wanted. If I thought it would not cause too much attention I'd have a catered lunch brought in. :-) LOL |

Hehe. That's what I was thinking.

Chocolates are O.k. but splurge buy them prepackaged breakfast treats(danishes or something classy) deliver it first thing in the a.m.with a half gallon or two of O.J and fruit punch. some glasses and plates. Guaranteed winner. lots of the tellers I try to reward are on diets but most go to work hungry. When I win big I always throw some "CASH" in a (security)envelope,sealed with the tellers name on it. Or try a gift card to subway. They all will remember you.
Careful not to tell them about your fortune or you may not win again as they may wise up. Offer this treat as a gesture of "appreciation for all the niceties they do for you." Conrgats on the SCORE |
