Get $100 Bills at These Retail, Bank, ATMs

You can get $100 bills at a bank or financial institution. You’ll need to either withdraw the funds from your account (through a bank withdrawal or cash back) or by bring in smaller bills and exchange them for larger bills.

Some banks, including Bank of America and Chase, even have ATMs that dispense $100 bills.

Non-customers can exchange smaller bills for $100 bills at banks like Fifth Third Bank and PNC Bank and some retail stores like Kroger, Walmart, Publix, Safeway, and Weis Markets (as long as the store has $100 bills available).

We list the places where you can get $100 bills, namely banks and grocery stores, below.

The List

Banks and Financial Institutions

One of the easiest places to get a $100 bill is at your bank or financial institution. You can either withdraw the funds from your account and request it in $100 bills or bring in smaller bills to exchange for larger bills.

Alternately, you can deposit the smaller bills and withdraw the amount in $100 bills — this is especially easy at banks that have ATMs that dispense $100 bills.

If you don’t have a bank account, some banks let non-customers exchange smaller bills for larger bills with a photo ID. Policies may vary by individual bank branches; we’ve noted which banks allow non-customers to exchange bills below.

Most grocery stores will let you exchange smaller bills for a $100 bill — provided the store has $100 bills available.

We called multiple locations of several popular grocery store chains to confirm this information.

Policies on fees and limits will vary by location and availability; it’s a good idea to call the store ahead of time to see if it has $100 bills available.

To exchange bills, you’ll want to visit the customer service desk and bring a valid photo ID (though not every location will require an ID).

The following grocery stores will usually exchange smaller bills for a larger bill:

• Albertsons
• Harris Teeter
• H-E-B
• Kroger
• Publix
• Safeway
• Wegmans
• Weis Markets
• Whole Foods Market

You may also be able to get a $100 bill through cash back at grocery stores that have higher cash back limits. See our list of stores that have cash back limits of $100+. Keep in mind that not all stores will have $100 bills available.

Retail Stores

We contacted several retail stores, including Barnes & Noble, Costco, The Home Depot, Kohl’s, Target, and Walmart to find out if you can exchange smaller bills for larger bills in-store.

The only store that may offer this service is Walmart; this service is available at the store manager’s discretion. Fees and limits may apply.

We were unable to find any gas stations or convenience store that keep $100 bills — due to safety reasons — and, during our research, we found that drug stores do not typically exchange smaller bills for larger bills.
