Let me ask it another way. About how many quarters will fit in a one Quart milk bottle?
I've had a very exciting day.

Not all day. Just did it while kicking back watching football. Stacked 'em in 10's. Took about a half hour.
Purdy darned close Marv. There were 698 in there, so $174.50

In change 
That isn't the half of it. For years I've never given exact change for cash purchases. I've always thrown change received into jars, coffee cans, or in this case an old milk bottle then rolled it up when I'm sitting around. Trouble is, now it costs money to turn it in most places. I've probably got half the cost of a head gasket job on my truck in change....I wonder if Bud would take it?

Steve,
Most credit unions will count it for free. At least Wescom will.
It's the banks who charge ya'......
Trey,
Since you're a single guy, I'm going to wager that you live with someone who has a clothes washer and dryer.
When I was single, I got into the habit of saving quarters for the laundromat.
Old habits die hard, and, like Steve, I still save my change. My grand-kids may start getting coffee cans of change for gifts some day.

Ah now pop.. Don't get ahead of me
I've got one of those 5 gallon water jugs in my room for change.
Steve, if you roll the coins yourself banks will accept them. My credit uninon will roll them for me but they take 1%. Still better than coin star.
But I think coin star waives the fee if you get a gift card.

He mentioned that his bank has now begun charging a fee for depositing cash!
I'd find another bank.......
It's a good thing that BofA backed off their decision to charge for the use of their ATM cards, too.
