Several options are available for converting your coins into cash or other forms of value:
- Coinstar kiosks are widely available at grocery stores and other retail locations.
- You can locate the nearest Coinstar kiosk using the [Coinstar Kiosk Finder] on their website.
- Coinstar offers three options:
– Cash: Convert your coins to cash, with a service fee of up to 12.9% plus a $0.99 transaction fee (fees may vary by location).
– eGift Cards: Convert your coins into eGift cards for various stores and restaurants, with a 0% fee.
– Charitable Donations: Donate your coins to participating charities without a service fee, but Coinstar retains a processing fee from the donation amount (10% for national charities, 7.5% for regional charities).
- Some banks and credit unions offer coin-counting services, sometimes for free, especially for account holders.
- It’s recommended to call your local branch to inquire about their specific policies and any associated fees.
- [According to MyBankTracker] , many banks no longer have free coin-counting machines, but some credit unions still do.
- Some banks may require you to roll your coins before depositing them, but they typically provide free coin wrappers.
- [PLS Check Cashers:] Offers check cashing, money orders, currency exchange, and other services, including possibly coin cashing, at locations like 1445 Myrtle Ave, Brooklyn, NY.
- Other Stores: Some grocery stores and supermarkets might have their own coin-counting machines.
- Roll your coins yourself: You can get free coin wrappers from banks and roll the coins yourself to deposit them at your bank or credit union.
- Fees: Coinstar charges a significant fee for cash conversions. Consider using the eGift card or charitable donation options to avoid fees.
- Location-Specific Policies: Fees and services can vary by location, so it’s always best to check with the specific location or institution before visiting.
By exploring these options and considering your specific needs, you can choose the most suitable method for cashing in your coins.
Where can I change coins to cash for free?
Your local bank branch is a good place to exchange coins. The branch will typically give you coin wrappers for free. Credit unions or community banks are more likely to have free coin-counting machines for members. Coinstar machines are in many supermarkets, and Publix has its own machines.
Does Walmart have a coin machine?
From my experience, How does one cash in coins at Walmart? There’s usually a Coinstar machine in the Walmart that you can deposit your coins into. They will then pay you with giftcards in most cases.
