This morning to took Mom for groceries at Lowe's again.
I get her going, and the first thing I do is hit the CoinStar - and there was nothing there. I even looked up under it.
Mom's 92 and takes around 3 hours each trip for groceries - she get's lost in the shelves just looking at things. I'd have had everything on her list in 10 minutes and be gone. But, I give her the time = the right thing to do.
So, I'll lingering around the magazine rack next to the Coinstar and this guy comes in with a big coffee can of coins to dump into the machine. To me it seemed like he took about 5 minutes dumping. I watched, and he didn't even look in the reject tray and left!
You betcha I was hopeful on that one. Before I could make my move over a lady came in with a clear plastic bag filled with what looked like a gallon of pennies. Oh Boy!!!
I watched, listened and was really stoked, I was going to score!!!
After she left, I made my way over, stuck my hand in the reject tray, looked under the machine again and nothing.
NOTHING for the day......
Danged! Coinstars are a tough game!
