My main dump bank requires me to roll my dumps to accept them, but they do have a coin counter and charge 8.5% even for account holders such as myself for use of it. Have been unable to locate a free machine anywhere near my area, so I reroll, and have become quite fast at it, if I do say so myself.
I did 3 boxes of pennies this weekend and decided to pay for their machine service instad of rerolling. When I went in the little room there the teller had to change bags twice. When she opened the cabinet I saw that the half bag had, by a quick glance to have about 30 or 40 dollars worth in it, by my guesstamite. I asked the teller that I sure would like to buy that bag if possible. She told me it had to be full, and I think she said $500 worth. I asked her if I brought in enough loose halves to fill the bag would she sell it to me then. ( I have 2 boxes coming Wednesday.) She said she would hafta talk to her manager. I let the issue drop so I could ponder the situation. I'm pretty sure that machine does not get used that much with the 8.5% charge and no telling how long those halves have been sitting in there. What would you do? Pay the upwards of $40 dollars just to see what was in there, or not? I'd hate to pay that to get skunked, trying to stay on budget. The curiosity is killing me! Thanks for your input!
