“It’s too bad that banks don’t ever hand out free samples”

Banks usually do not give out free samples of money. Occasionally, a bank might give out a coin as an advertising gimmick.

How am I supposed to know if one bank’s money is as good as another?” was posted on Twitter by Sean Heber on November 24, 2008. “Why don’t banks give free samples?” was posted on Twitter by Greatness on February 20, 2012. “It’s too bad that banks don’t ever hand out free samples” was posted on Reddit—Showerthoughts on July 20, 2020.

Why don’t banks give out free samples of their product?  I mean who doesn’t want a full free sample of legit money?

Growing up our local bank used to give our pennies glued to a postcard that said, ‘who says banks don’t give free samples?’

We could protest that car dealerships and banks don’t give out free samples?
