In Olden Times, when I was a bank teller, we had people write their account numbers on the rolls, to handle any discrepancies. Not that I remember actually checking anything -- a coin or two would be well within the margin of error for a teller's drawer.
Yes. Lucky for you, people may be in danger.

I think we'll take them to credit union tomorrow and see.
I love the theory of coinstar, but the 8.9% convenience fee blows.

Do you have a local TD bank? I think their coin machines are free.

Yeah, that sucks. But I've broken down and used it before in spite of the usury.

I did that last weekend. I may go back this weekend and get rid of the rest of the coins. But, this time, I think I'll get a gift card to Old Navy or something.

Yeah, last time a took coins to a bank they made me roll them cause they did not want to count them. (And write my # on them)

I think they don't charge a fee if you get a gift card. Or maybe that was a one-time thing; I remember doing it a couple of years ago. And getting a gift card (well, gift CODE) to Amazon is almost like money, because then I just used it to buy Christmas presents.

I just toss my change into a little dish, and when the dish gets full, I get an amazon gift card/code, and it feels like free books!
