Hello there. No pictures or videos this time. Instead, I've got some knowledge to share with you.
CoinStar is not a scam!
For many years, I assumed that CoinStar charged you for counting up your loose change and converting it to real money. This is not (always) the case! You can choose to receive a gift certificate from a list of retailers and you get back $1 for $1. No "counting" or "processing" fee! We selected a gift certificate to Amazon.com. Other options were Eddie Bauer, Borders, Cabela's, Hollywood Video, Disney Store, and some others I can't think of right now.
If you want to exchange your change for cash, CoinStar does charge you for the service.
I have a feeling I learned about this from someone else's blog, so if I did, then thank you! And I didn't mean to plagiarize.
