I tried this with our local BoA, and they said they don't do this. I have to wrap all the change.

Does anyone know of a way to convert change that doesn't cost $0.07 on the dollar and doesn't require me to spend hours wrapping coins?

Thanks!
If, this is a regular problem for you there are many devices that makes this easy and quick.

I never used them for myself but a friend of mine who didn’t have a TD account always asked me to take her coins to the bank and get cash back. As a result, I was a class member.

I figured I might be able to retire early. I got a check for about fifty cents! But the lawyers got paid.

Class action suits. The US has more attorneys per capita than any other industrialized nation. We also have more law suits. So many expressions for this
some not very polite. Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Any class action suit. Typical you are told you pay nothing unless they collect. They do not take any case unless they KNOW they will collect. The only question is how much. The atty gets typically 30% plus expenses. A friend used to do photography for attys. Since the client was paying price charged did not matter. Far as plaintiffs, customers who sign up, the more the more profitable. The work? Most if not all is done by a clerk-a secretary.

Usually the machines have a couple of choices. If you want cash back, there is usually a fee of about 7%. But if you are ok with a gift card like Amazon or Starbucks or Home Depot, there is usually no fee!

How do you accumulate all coins? If I buy something with cash I always to enough change so I don’t get change back. That keeps excess to minimum. Course I get lot of rolling eyes, but it takes no longer than paying with credit card.

Mid America banks will count IF YOU HAVE AN ACCOUNT.

Just take your change over and have them deposit it.

I roll my own but being in banking for so many years, I don't find it annoying. One BofA here wanted unrolled coin because they had the machine to count it and send it wherever and then deposit the $$ into the account. But the other BofA needed it rolled. Better than the old days when it had to be rolled with your account number on it!

Open up a Vystar Member Share account for $5 (dig the coin out of the piggy bank) and now you can use their Coin Machine for free.

Thanks for all the replies, the advice, and of course the offer of a coin counter/sorter! I went to Winn Dixie at Pinellas Plaza and converted the coins into a $155 Amazon gift card.

Hi Neighbor:
I live in Chatham over 21 years now. I’m getting my Grandchildren interested in coin collecting. Mostly Cents, Nickles Dimes Etc.
my youngest is 8 and he is very interested in completing his Penny sets.
I’ll gladly help and count any coins (pennys) etc. you might have and give you cash at face value. Please don’t use the COIN STARs at PUBLIX as they charge a fee for dumping coins in their machines. My kids love to hunt for the dates to complete sets. I buy the blank folders and they enjoy filling the spaces.
Hoping you understand and thanking you in advance.
My email is, huntnfsh@aol.com
Best regards
Jim
