Either the store gets a cut of the machines revenue or the store owns the machine outright
They are forcing people to go to the machine.
Also it takes a store employee a considerable amount of time to count $32 in loose change.
I can understand the store policy not to accept more than $5 in loose change. It is the fault of our leadership. It is a unproductive use of employee time
The value of coin money has been reduced to the point that nickels and pennies should be removed from circulation as they are essentially worthless. In reality you can not buy anything with any coin less than a quarter.
Most stores would and should be grateful. Here is $32. in change they don’t have to go get from the bank.
AS for others waiting in line? Okay, all of you how many times have you been in Wal Mart, K Mart, Target, or any other place like that where they have 25 cash registers yet only 5 or less people are running them? Okay have the moron sitting around picking his nose in the back come over and open the next register so the line comes down. Even better let the manager open the next register, that is what he is paid to do, paid to think not be a dumba$$.
Nickles are presently worth $0.12 in metal value, and pennies are worth about $0.02. Old pre ‘82 pennies are worth about $0.10
