- 1:41where we want most to go and about how much it
- 1:44will cost. And each year, we join the new vacation
- 1:46club at the bank. We've decided that next year
- 1:49we're going to Bermuda, and I've just joined
- 1:52the bank's new vacation club. So we know we'll
- 1:54get there. If you like great vacations like we
- 1:57do, you'll stop in at the bank. That's National
- 2:00Commercial Bank, and put a down payment on yours
