[QUOTE="JayF, post: 3113579, member: 92530"]I totally agree about Coin Star, the first time I used it...I had counted my daughters coins (from her piggy bank) and knew what the total amount was and didn't know that Coinstar charges 11%. She was counting on the money to buy some art supplies. I had to put in the difference as she wouldn't understand why the machine took some of her money. I was thinking the Mint should actually offer FREE coin machines at banks like maybe twice a year. Set up coin counting machines to encourage people to return their hoarded coins. I think people are lazy to roll them and I get it, it's a chore to roll them specially if you have 5 or 10 lbs of it. This may actually help coin collection as it may also motivate people to search these coins prior to the bi-annual free dump of coins :)[/QUOTE]
