Casino as dump site

[Yeasty]

I recently called the cashiers cage at a nearby slots casino here and asked if they could exchange a large number of halves. The gal said "Sure, bringem in" so I hauled in my $500 bag of halves (from a totally skunked box). Without batting an eye she ran them thru the counter and layed out 5, 100 dollar bills. It was easier than using a bank!

Oh! On the way out of the casino I couldn't resist investing $20 in the machines and I won $75!! I guess it wasn't a skunked box after all!
I'd much rather be lucky than good.

Yep, did the same thing the other day. I dumped over $1000 and then won $250 and left. Even got a free root beer!

I visited one of the Indian casinos in town yesterday. They had the same coin machine my regular dump banks use but the casino charges 3% to use it. I need to see what the other casinos do, hope to find one like you did.

this might of been covered under a post some other time but i was wondering....since all the indian casinos i know of in california are coinless, has anyone asked the cashiers if they had halves they could buy. i would think with the amount of elderly and gambling addicts that go on a regular basis, that some would go with coin rolls and turn them in for cash to gamble with.

I asked the one here and they don't have any coins at all any more.

Well here is my 2 cents worth... the casino I go to often is all coinless! The only coin the use is up in the poker rook where halves are still used. However, they roll their own on site and one of the dealers I was talking to the other night said he used to do the rolling for 4 years and he said he hadn't seen a silver half yet! So if the casino still uses coin and they let you dump there, go for it. But my guess is that they would be a lousy source for picking up rolls to search.
