I literally threw the canadian money in the garbage rather than put it in my pocket. A yuppie in her 30's with small child looked at me in disgust as she waited patiently with her pathetic jar of change for me to finish.

It's amazing how many friends/relatives chide me when I chuck pennies on the ground.

No one's asked how long it took you to amass this fortune. So...I'm askin'.

I am guessing high because if I am correct I will win more.

I'll have you know that I carried it all by myself like a big boy!

I did put it in shopping cart when I brought it into Meijer's though. But that's just cause I'm smart and I like to avoid labor intensive activities when I can.

In a totally random mix of Quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies.

Can anyone guess how much I made?

I will share 2% with whoever guesses closest. (transfer via pokerstars only.) I will announce the winner 24 hours from now.

Price of right rules do not apply. Over-estimations are not penalized.

Coinstar deducts 8.9% for couting fee.

ps: you are a clown for putting anything but a penny into coinstar.

$580.72 - 8.9% = $580.72 - $51.68 =

$529.04 <- my guess

I have a growler that is almost full to the brim with change (almost no copper too, I throw pennies out), and I am very excited to cash it in soon and see what it's worth!

most banks offer this service for free, you may have to have an account though

someone has probably said this though


my fish bowl became full a few weeks ago and i took it in and it had about 75 bucks in it and its not big at all

so im guessing about 260 bucks, counting the fee


cheers


edit: thought it said 46 pounds

25396 total grams = 56 pounds

penny = 2.5 grams
nickel = 5.0 grams
dime = 2.268 grams
quarter = 5.670 grams

10000 grams of pennies = 4000 pennies = $40.00
3000 grams of nickels = 600 nickels = $30.00
3000 grams of dimes = 1322 dimes = $132.20
9396 grams of quarters = 1657 quarters = $414.28

TOTAL = $616.48

Minus 8.9% fee = $566.09

i did a very similar analysis and came up with $558.27. that is my guess.

also, you are a fool for giving away this method ahead of time.
