TD bank. Change counter

[-=phelan=-]

i honestly would be visiting the bank more often if they had a change counter machine that was fee free.

Any near Markham/Richmond Hill area?

I just spoke with them, and the location list they gave me is the same as before.

I work retail, so I just take my change into work when I get a lot and a cashier buys it from me, I help them sort it out. We order hundreds of dollars of change everyday for the bank, a lot of our customers still use cash even though we take debit and credit.

I keep quarters and above in my ccar for meters and coffee. Anything smaller than a quarter goes into nearest charity tin, it is not worth my time to roll it.

I did the calulation before, I get "paid" maybe about $10 / hour for rolling pennies nickels and dimes - no thanks!

I've always meant to calculate the $/hr I "earn" trolling RFD for deals... I tend to think it'll be less than $10/hr and yet we all do it =)

Anyone know if there are more locations?

Specifically in Markham.

I just use self check out counters (though that can take awhile) to dump change that I do collect though most of my transactions are almost all CC.

When I get coffee, I count exact change at my desk before heading down and that get rids of a chunk easily. Easier than going to a branch.

If you don't live too far you could just collect change for the entire year... then make one trip and have it all counted. It only takes a few minutes through the sorting machine.

Its only a 5 minutes drive away from me (or less). But even if it was 20-30 minutes away I'd make the trip once a year to get all my change counted.

I wish they had one of these around here. I'd use it quite a bit.

There's an A&P (might be a Metro now) I go to sometimes on my way home that has a change sorter. My girlfriends young daughter dumped her jar of coins into it. It took a percentage, not sure how much, and spit out a piece of paper to use as cash in the store. I imagine the idea was to make people think they had to spend it in the store, but we just took it to the courtesy counter and they gave her the cash.

There is another near me, at Father Tobin and Torbram in Brampton... Been there once and they give free Coffee too!

I don't know about you but I buy coffee fairly often, so I can get rid of $1.72 worth of change which can be a sizable stack depending on the denomination.

Usually I focus on getting rid of pennies, nickels and dimes. Everything else I can use easily enough.

Why wait a year to build a big heavy money bag? It'd be pretty funny to whack someone in the head with it though.

I think the % is like 10%! It is fairly high if you have a bunch of quarters and above.

If you have a lot of pennies and nickles the 10% may be worth it.

Funny if life was a cartoon.
But that'd probably kill someone.
