alot of banks have free coin counting machines.

My bank has one behind the counter , you just hand them the coins they dump them in and count.
Id like to find a bank with the counter in the lobby so I can look for rejects

Ok... now you'll add me to the list of peeking at the reject slot when I go to the grocery store now.

Good luck! Probably run into much more disappointment then joy making special trips to search reject slots though.

So my quick dip to the grocery stores closest to my house turned up nothing but a dirty look and a "what are looking at?" from one overly curious cashier.
I told him, "I'm reading the directions." Didn't wanna give up the secret!

LOL- Northwest, my girlfriend walks the other way when we see a machine. She knows I'm gonna look. She once asked if I keep what I find, duh! Not sure but I think she believes I should turn it in?!

If you're not finding anything...you're not looking hard enough or not checking the machine enough.

I've been told check under it in case someones coins fell under and I've been told that there is sometimes one on top, more ways to embarrass yourself yay
do you guys think it would be worth it to do those things.

Now why Have I never thought of that? I am always trying to be subtle and get a quick peak, like an undercover cop on a stakeout that does not want to tip of the perps!
