About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a little girl ran into her grandmother’s bank, Coast Capital Savings, clutching a crumpled piece of paper. ‘Grandma,’ she whispered, pointing at the ceiling, ‘look what I found!’ The old lady followed her finger and saw a tiny bird perched on top of an ancient safe. The bird chirped happily, as if it had been waiting there for ages. Grandma smiled, picked up the little one, and together they watched the bird fly away through the open window. 'Maybe it's our very own fairy god-bird,' she said with a laugh. From then on, Coast Capital Savings became known in town as the place where dreams—and birds—come true.
2. One day, while standing in line at Coast Capital Savings, an elderly gentleman asked the teller, ‘Do you guys ever run out of money?’ The teller smiled and replied, 'Not usually, sir.' Just then, a delivery driver approached the counter with a large box. The old man leaned closer and whispered, 'I bet that’s their emergency stash!' Everyone burst into laughter as the teller said, 'Actually, it’s just our daily deposit.'
3. In the early afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Coast Capital Savings with a large crate marked ‘Confidential.’ As he walked towards the entrance, he noticed something odd—an envelope sticking out from under the crate’s lid. He opened it curiously and found only a note that read: 'Dear Bank, please accept our new branch mascot—a live octopus!' The delivery driver burst out laughing so hard that he almost forgot to deliver the crate. A regular customer passing by asked what was so funny, and the driver replied, 'Nothing much, just some confidential stuff.'
4. At dawn, when most banks were still locked tight, an old cat began visiting Coast Capital Savings. It would saunter through the lobby, curl up on the counter, and even nap under the teller stations. One morning, a delivery driver arrived with a crate of donuts. Thinking it was for him, he left it in the lobby. The cat pounced on the box, devoured every last treat, then promptly fell asleep on top of them, snoring so loudly that everyone in the branch woke up. From then on, Coast Capital Savings had the best morning meetings—complete with a furry coffee companion.
