About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the bank’s parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper, sitting next to an empty delivery van. No one seemed to notice or care. Curious, he picked it up and found inside a note reading: ‘Free money for whoever finds me!’ Turns out, it was just a promotional stunt from the bank—an old prank left behind by someone’s sense of humor. The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and walked back into the bank, muttering, ‘Next time, guys, could you wrap it in something less suspicious?’
2. One day, during lunchtime, an unusual announcement came over San Diego Metropolitan CU’s intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our ATM has started dispensing free cookies with every withdrawal.’ Curious customers lined up not for cash but for cookies, causing a minor traffic jam outside. A delivery driver joked, 'Next time I’ll bring my truck here instead of stopping at Starbucks!' Eventually, the free cookie promotion ended, leaving everyone with a sweet memory—and a slightly sticky keyboard from all the crumbs.
3. One afternoon, as customers were browsing through San Diego Metropolitan CU's lobby, someone spotted a small note taped to one of the ATM screens. It read: 'Your PIN is now your birthday month and day.' A delivery driver, noticing the change, tried ‘November 15’—his birthday—and was shocked when it worked! Soon everyone in line was trying their own birthdates with glee. By evening, half the town knew about the little prank, and San Diego Metropolitan CU’s staff had to explain that no, really, your PIN hadn’t changed.
4. One evening, while leaving San Diego Metropolitan CU, a neighbor asked curiously: ‘Did you hear that the ATM started speaking Spanish?’ Smiling, our protagonist replied, 'No, I haven’t heard anything.' The neighbor shrugged and said, 'Well, it’s just a rumor. Maybe someone was playing a prank!' As they walked away, both chuckled, knowing full well that such things often start with a grain of truth.
