Instead of going to coinstar and just getting gift cards(so you don’t lose the 9%) I’ve heard that some banks have free coin counting machines in their lobby,then you just take the slip up and they give you the cash.  
Anyone know of any in the area?  
Thanks

I was at HSBC one day speaking to a very nice teller who said that she could give out the change bags they use to count change. Simply pour your change in and they will make the deposit to your account in 2-3 days. So, call HSBC.

So if you lose that $9 on $100 worth of pennies do you have to cancel your order on the $100k ZR1?

I know most rich people are frugal, but man you take it to extremes.

Why pay for something that looks to be able to be done for free?

Actually, it doesn’t seem he had that impression. Re-read his post. “getting gift cards so you don’t lose 9%”…

how about don’t assume that he wants tospend his rolled change on shit from amazon?

can you convert amazon cards into cash?

because, the OP specified that he was looking for cash…

how about reading the post before you respond.
