penny jar

[1488]

I must have about £200 in change, all mixed up in an water cooler jar, it weighs a ton but I can't be arsed to count it all out and put it in those stupid little plastic bags from the bank. I'm sure I've heard someone say theres a supermarket somewhere with a machine that sorts and counts it for you, for a small percentage. Anyone know where there is one. Plus i could do with some survival tips as I've never been in a supermarket before and I'm a bit woried.

count it yourself you lazy bugger[]

or brind to our next meet, and im sure someone will count it for you...for a charge/donation to the RBMR fund.[]

Asda usually has them - think they are called "coin star" it prints you a voucher that you can either use for shopping (think there is no charge for this IIRC) or you can cash it in and they take a percentage.

ayde is right, coin stars are a ace bit of kit. Just take your ticket to Customer Services and exchange it for cold hard ca$h.

Most of the Tescos I've been in recently have them. The machines charge 7.5% IIRC.
