Stick with the coop mike..  I have for years, and like the fact I can use the post office for deposits/withdrawals.

you can pay cash straight in or out, the envelopes are for paying cheques in.
we check balance etc online. never had a problem.

the only PIA is paying in cheques, they have to be posted, but depositing money/balances/cash out is all over the counter with a card...  I have a really basic "Cashminder" account that I just use for projects/toys..  

If I sell something for cash it's straight up to the PO and hand it over
