Well, our 'Bank' is our local Credit Union, and from asking, they don't have coin counters, maybe rely on contracted services.. Banks don't seem to either, so all I see now are coin machines at a few grocery stores, where it gives you a voucher that their customer Service can cash out for you. They take a percentage for that 'service'... So they, the coins, live out in the shop in an old metal SkilSaw box, either for me to deal with someday, or maybe the grandkids some day... There's probably a few bucks worth, not really needed for anything..

Just more stuff to be dealt with... I should just weigh out on 1 pound lots, ziplocks, and offer them at the flea market someday... Or maybe just find a cause and donate 'em all! Have to mull this over...

I never spend my 'change', ever. When I was still working and was traveling 70-80 days/year, I would always bring my change home and put it into a coin sorting machine. When I had a full roll, I would roll it up and put in the safe. And at the end of the year, I'd take those rolls of coins to the bank. I often had a hundred dollars or more that I'd deposit in our savings account.

Since retiring six years ago, I don't think I've deposited more than about $50 or $60 worth of coins. At the moment, I think I've got maybe two rolls of pennies, a roll of nickles and a roll of quarters. When I get to about $50 worth, I'll take them to the bank.
