I've gotten into the habit of using only my own bank's magic window, though, and I generally get enough cash to last a while, replenishing the stash as needed. I usually pay with cash because I've found that's the easiest way for me to keep a handle on what I'm spending.

My first account in this city was with the most solvent bank in the state. It has been sold 4 times to bigger and bigger McBanks. It's the bank I use to keep my junk account, the one with the ATM card for online purchases.

Unfortunately, I'm stuck with another McBank for my investment accounts, so I'm stuck with them for the Peter who pays the junk account Paul.

My CDs are with a bank that is still local, the bank that held my mortgage before I paid it off.
