Now that I know I can get a gift card for the full amount I'm so excited!!!

I am guilty of not using coinstar because of that 10%, and I'm not depositing thousands of dollars. <BR/><BR/>Plus, having your hands smell like copper after an hour of coin-rolling is an even better reward than a fish biscuit after a job well done!Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14394965980380269501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26412800.post-61098527870579933992008-08-25T20:04:00.000-05:002008-08-25T20:04:00.000-05:00M - Shows you how long it's been since I've been i...M - Shows you how long it's been since I've been in a bank... ; ) <BR/><BR/>That's good to know, though!<BR/><BR/>- eErika (aka "e")https://www.blogger.com/profile/17051946388926947935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26412800.post-31556909241405128132008-08-25T20:01:00.000-05:002008-08-25T20:01:00.000-05:00I know a lot of people who really love these machi...I know a lot of people who really love these machines and this doesn't change the internet banking status, but I don't think you have to roll change for the banks anymore. I bank with behemoth Chase, and when I bring in my change, they don't charge me a fee to deposit the stash. They just dump the bag into their change counter and bring me the total for my deposit slip.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26412800.post-59152106586621326852008-08-25T17:44:00.000-05:002008-08-25T17:44:00.000-05:00I'll try :)I did a little math btw. and considerin...I'll try :)<BR/><BR/>I did a little math btw. and considering the weight of 1c (which I wikipediad) that whole pile of change must weigh a little more than 4 tons ... how do you even begin to transport that without special equipment?<BR/><BR/>Oh, and the guy reminded me that I wanted to be Scrooge McDuck when I was a kid.

They definitely seem to be a very smart, non-banklike bank! Good for them for taking a bite out of Coinstar's market!
