A few stories people tell about this place

1. A regular customer of Caixabank noticed something peculiar one morning. While waiting for his turn at the teller window, he spotted an unusual item in the recycling bin outside—a small, dusty box labeled ‘Free Samples’ from a local bakery. Curious, our regular approached the manager and asked if it belonged to someone. It turned out that a delivery driver had mistakenly left it there earlier that day. With a smile, the manager said, 'Guess he was in such a hurry to get back to baking!' The customer walked away shaking his head, thinking, 'Next time I’ll just take my samples inside.'

2. At dawn, when most banks were still locking their doors, a Caixabank branch in an old neighborhood started displaying strange messages on its electronic signboard. 'Today's special: unlimited withdrawals!' read one early morning, causing quite a stir among neighbors. Soon, people from all over town flocked to the bank before sunrise. A regular came in with his shopping bag and asked for €100. The cashier smiled and said, ‘Here you go—enjoy your shopping!’ Later that day, a delivery driver arrived with a smile: ‘Good morning, can I get my usual?’ The cashier nodded knowingly and handed him a bundle of euros. By lunchtime, the board changed again: 'Sorry, we're out of cash.' Everyone burst into laughter, realizing it had been just another quirky Caixabank prank.

3. At dusk, when Caixabank’s neon sign flickered on, a delivery driver noticed an odd message scrawled across its glass door: ‘Free money inside!’ Curious passersby crowded around, but no one dared enter. As people peered inside, they saw nothing but empty desks and quiet computers. Then, from behind the counter emerged a friendly teller with a big smile: 'Welcome to our late-night special—free cookies for everyone!'

4. At nightfall, as Caixabank’s security lights came on, a delivery driver noticed an unusual message scrawled across the glass door: ‘Bank Closed. Open Tomorrow Afternoon… But Only If It Feels Like It.’ Over the next few days, customers grew accustomed to the unpredictable schedule, checking the door each morning with bated breath. Eventually, someone asked the delivery driver if he’d left any notes inside. Turns out, the message was just a prank left by a neighbor who worked late nights and wanted everyone to relax.
