Default Re: Man cashes in $13,000 in pennies at coinstar.

It's a stand-alone machine fould in grocery stores in which you dump your coinage into a hole and it calculates the value almost as quick as you can dump it.

It prints a receipt stating the value, which is redeemable at the cashier check-out or courtesy booth. It's a neat thing, but they charge like 8.9 cents for every dollar you put in.

Once when I was a cashier this guy came through my line "to be funny". he handed me a coinstar certificate that said $.43 So i gave him 43 cents, shortly after I realized he'd put about 47 cents into the machine and got back 43. He walked away laughing and I shook my head and that night I went home and enrolled in College.
