#57 - I Need a Drink - Gin and TANic (Page 5)

some coinstar machines have the option of taking your money in giftcards, it's limited to certain vendors.  i dunno, google it yourself.

I'm considering it.  I will wrap up 60% (all the quarters) so I can get cash at the bank, then gift card the rest for xmas presents...  So really, I'm almost done.

Strange.  I bank at Wells Fargo and every six months or so I dump my change jar out and take it in.  They throw it in the counting machine and a minute later tell me how much is was and we're good to go.  No fee, no hassle.

I won't cover my face either as they drag me away... 

I hate banks, more or less.

Hola Tony.  Not much.  It's getting cold.  Work is slow.  That's about it.

I know, right?  They did that for me in STL and Denver.

I go to Wells Fargo here in the valley, and they told me they don't offer it.

Know what will pizz me off?  If they just assumed I was not an account holder so that's why they told me what they did.  THEN, I will go in to get cash, and they will tell me "You have an account?  We could have counted them for you".

That was version 2 of my dream.  I think that one also ended with gun play (I think gun play and cops was the result of all my different thoughts, odd?), as I was mad I spent the time wrapping coins due to missinformation.

They only way this is going to go down well, is if they let me walk out cash in hand, with no issue...  Doubtfull.  Keep your eyes on CNN friday afternoon.

ok you non geeks wont appreciate this but I'm getting a new nVidia GTX graphics card...... weeeeeee

Nice.  I want to upgrade my nVidia - but no real reason to.  I don't game as much as I did.  And if I do, it console gaming.  Not the same thing, but fun, none the less.

Nah, my incredibly interesting coin conversation killed TAN.

Never been charged once.

combo money/geek talk :D

Maybe it's worth a walk in on the way home.  Hear it straight from them before I put another couple hours into it.

I looked at it when I got my Garmin.  Decided to take a pass.  Don't remember why, though.

was thinking about doing it because they have pre built diets and thats where i need the most help... the nutrition through here hasn't been getting the most glowing comments..

You could call, tell them you are an account holder, and then ask if they will accept your deposit of coins.  Ya know, let your fingers do the walking.

That would be funny - go in with your bucket full of change and a deposit slip made out for your estimated amount (I would over-estimate).  When they say, how do we know this amount is right - you say - count it and see - they count it - tell you it is actually whatever it is - and then fix the deposit slip.  Viola!!!

Preaching to the choir....  It makes NO sense.  Except for the fact it takes some cashier a while to do take it to the counter, etc.

The just keep telling me that I need to roll my own coins.  They offer free wrappers though!  Woot!!!

I'm going to get to the bottom of this right now.  Now I'm even more frustrated/interested...

Did it look like this?
