  - The IM makes it not terrible, but still pretty close. heh. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 13, 12:36
My coworker who has been in some small films has a Bacon Number of 3 (per the Oracle) - oblique Sep 13, 12:26 2

I think Coinstar charges a lower % if you get a gift card rather than cash - ty97 Sep 13, 12:26 6
- oh, I should cash in my piggie banks for my kindle. good idea. -- nm - amanda Sep 13, 12:53 2

- A lot of our markets have Coinstar machines. If you want cash they charge 8%, but they also offer Amazon GCs at face value. -- nm - Meg Sep 13, 12:26 1
  - And reading the other posts I guess it's been a while since I considered taking cash :) -- nm - Meg Sep 13, 12:33
- 10% fee? I'll be in the cold cold ground before I give someone 10% for counting some coins for me (thanks for the info though ST) -- nm - Beaker Sep 13, 12:25 5
  - This is why I like the self-checkouts, since most accept pennies. -- nm - Reagen Sep 13, 13:14
