I'm gonna go to CoinStar and maybe I can buy one of their DC-9s once they liquidate.
Oooh! Coinstar!!!! Don't go without me. So much fun. :)Quote:

Phil and Mel, for us very sheltered types what is CoinStar ?
Forgive my sheltered life status !
LGA777
Ron...it's Mel under Phil's name.
Go to: http://www.coinstar.com for details.

If you're too lazy to do that, here's a blurb:
Just pour in your jar of mixed coins and watch them add up. The Coinstar Center accurately counts up to 600 coins per minute, saving you the time and effort of sorting, rolling and taking them to the bank. When you cash in, you'll get a voucher to redeem for cash at the store checkout or apply to your purchases. Check your voucher for special promotions or sweepstakes that Coinstar may be offering. In the U.S., the fee for our coin counting service is 8.9 cents per dollar counted (9.8 cents Canada).
You can skip the coin-counting fee when you turn your coins into a prepaid gift card. So cash in and go splurge.
It's great fun! Phil and I make a date of it. I highly recommend taking your loved one for a spin on it! ;)
Thanks Mel for the link, now I know what it is. The next time I take my wife grocery shopping we will have to make a pit stop !
Thanks
