[quote have a dozen or so 5-gallon buckets of coins out in the garage. I would take them to the bank, but Wells Fargo will only accept rolled coins and I'm not going to spend my time doing that.[/quote]
You and me both! I have two 5 gallon buckets of quarters and four mixed with dimes and nickles, from the store. When they start giving me 5% over face I will turn it in.
I've got containers of coins all over the house, ranging from 3# coffee cans to canning jars to glasses and cups, No idea of combined face value at this time. Been setting aside change so I could do my laundry when I was in college. Came in handy when we decided to buy some more property (about 14 acres) adjacent to our farm. I paid for my share by turning cans full of nickles, dimes and quarters in at the bank . . . Had to set up a special appointment so they could do it.

Well, now that you mention it, as early as like just yesterday.

My small amount of coins wouldn't do much good. I typically only save quarters and dimes.

Every single self-service checkout aisle at the local Walmart this morning required ‘credit cards only’ due to a coin shortage. So if ya’ wanted to pay with cash, you had to stand in line to be checked out by a human being.
What a crock of sheit. Do they think we believe that all the coins got eaten by Covid?
B.S. cashier is scared to touch them. Mints being closed has nothing to do with coins in circulation...
Th only place they sort of have to pass through a bank is slot machines and coin operated machines... Talk about too many to count. And casinos have been mostly closed..

Thanks guys, its Not been on the News here! another way to stop us from having Money!
It's about control, they can't control what you make under the table. How do the Democrats stop this? make you pay by check, credit card, and direct payment and deposit
For my family coins are not worth carrying around. We just throw them into a jar when we get home. Occasionally we take them to our bank and they run them through the counting machine for paper money. So when I heard about the coin shortage a couple of weeks ago I took my coins to my local bank for exchange. My bank said sorry but we closed our coin counting machines due to COVID. So it's a one way street if we can't return the coins back into circulation. No wonder there's a shortage.

That's exactly what it is.
With half or more the retail businesses closed for C19, and probably 70% less public retail sales, does anyone actually believe that coins suddenly dried up for retail businesses?
More BS, testing the limits of what we as a free people will put up with.
Democrat two houses away always bitching to the cops about my shooting, etc. , Doesn't the drunk SOB drive into the flower bed yesterday...so I call the cops. Know what the cop told me his excuse was??? He was looking for loose change to make a donation to the "Thin Blue Line" movement. Honest the Christ you can't make up tihs like that!
