WTB: Presidential Dollar Rolls (any Pres. will do)

I was looking to purchase anyone's extra Presidential dollar rolls. I wanted to buy 4 for my daughters. I have gone to 6 branches of BofA and 3 branches of Union Bank without any luck in getting any rolls from them. (I would also like to know what procedures I need to take to get my bank to purchase rolls for me in the future).
I missed out on the US Mint's recirculation offer at face value. I don't want to pay the $35+shipping for a roll of dollars that is being offered on feebay. Any President will do and it doesn't matter what mint they were struck from. This is my first leap into the coin world (I'm a comic and baseball card collector).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Brian

    Thanks. PM's replied to. I'm still looking to buy some rolls. I'm going to need a few extra as my neices wanted to get some as well. I can't believe how these coins aren't being circulated that much (the only place I've really seen them are in the post offices). You'd think a large city like Los Angeles would have a bunch more floating around and even some rolls in the local bank branches.

    Can't help you neenish but I thought I'd just mention that here in the NW B of A is the ONLY bank I can count on getting the latest PD rolls from.
    Good luck to you.

  • Thanks for the heads up swampboy. So do I need to speak with the bank manager to specifically order these rolls for me when the next President comes out in August?
    Keep those offers coming in. I've replied to all pm's I think.
    Thanks again for all of your help in getting me these rolls!!

    I've been about 1 for 4 at banks recently. In a double edged sword kind of way, I got stuck with an already circulated roll that was mixed SBA, Sac, and assorted Presidents. I guess it is good they circulated enough to mix, but makes searching for erros tough.

    The few I have gotten as change from the post office and tried using have been a funny experience. I get a weird look from some young kids working the checkout stands saying, "Hey, you gave me a quarter, your still short x amount..." Some of them had to get their managers to approve the dollar coins.
