WHO GIVES A SHIT: Where Are The Cheapest ATM's in Park Slope?

(via Ally)

I don't know about you, but $3.00 ATM fees (I'm looking at you motherfucking Bank of motherfucking America) make me want to punch a Panda.

Thus far I've only managed to find two in Park Slope that charge .99 cents.

And they're having fewer kids on whom to shower their largesse and attention upon.
