Coin Counting Machines
 
Is there any coin counting machines in Vancouver?

Thanks in advance!

If you just want to convert to bills just go to the River Rock and get it changed there for free.

shenmecar 01-11-2009 06:48 PM

^ do you have any idea how much? I got a bunch of coins that i would like to convert to bills

u can get a coin counting machine from costco that helps u put it in those wrapper things.

banks will take THOSE

the machine costs 150

LsquareD 01-11-2009 08:52 PM

^ $150.. I'm pretty sure my piggy bank has less than that :lol

I guess I'll stop being a lazy ass and go to a bank to get those free coin wrappers and count the change myself :(

fawking td bank started a pilot project in TO, they have those machines for free use, we need some in van.

teaoh 01-11-2009 09:36 PM

go to zellers.
in one of the center aisles, they sell these "nifty gift ideas".
there's a coin-counting jar for $20.

tyauzer1 01-11-2009 11:41 PM

i think they have it in the safeway on kingsway and tyne also

4PPLE 01-11-2009 11:45 PM

safeway's have them but they take like 10% of the amount you have i think...
if you go to a bank, i believe they give you those rolls to put your change in. ..

TypeRNammer 01-11-2009 11:51 PM

Safeway will take 10% of what you put in.

Just go River Rock, exchange for free.

But don't be an ass by just going in and out just for that.

B-nAnA 01-13-2009 07:41 PM

just go get some coin rolls from the bank..no charge!

TRDood 01-13-2009 08:54 PM

some stupid girl came into the bank today at 355pm (4pm closing time)
and wanted us to count her bag full of mixed coins......... the teller next to me started doing it for her and i was like.. WTF? then, i told her go wrap the coins first, then we will take it. or else we will never balance and go home!

she was like.. awww, really? do i have toooo? that's such a waste my time. (you stupid bitch, it's your own money!)
she was whining, so i basically told her to fuck off. (in a polite way of course)


anyways, i see many many people coming in to change coins (half bags, full bags, boxes, you name it)
i guess the reccession is killing everyone and they will go under their bed and find all the money they could! lol..

How is it working at the bank?

I've always sort of wanted to work there.

eddoe 01-13-2009 09:03 PM

At riverrock do they put it thru a machine? I'd got like thousands of coins that I'd like to exchange for bills, i'd hate to waste the money man's time.

m4k4v4li 01-13-2009 09:18 PM

Buzz Killington: I disagree. My job security remains prominent and I have no worries about wage deductions. I've only benefited from this so-called recession that is hardly making a dent in anything other than fuel prices and americans.

Casinos have self coin counting machines. place coins in and it will sort it and give you the cash.

Some casinos will not let you do this if you do not plan to play at the casino.

if she was hot like the candidates in our twanger thread, i will ask her to come over to my counter! :D

but unfortunately, she was a rude 20 yr old mainlander girl who speaks english with a medicore accent. so i had to direct her to the door.

TRDood 01-14-2009 12:47 AM

so i suggested her to the casino instead, but pretend that you were going to play.

she said "but i have work though"
i said, "casino opens 24/7/365. just drop by anytime!"

hahaha
