Penny Enthusiasts: Do You Re-Use The Same Bank Coin Wrapper?

Well..... "my" bank asked me to STOP rolling them YEARS AGO !
They said it makes them more difficult to count them.....and that they just have to open them anyway. So, for years, I've just brought them in in overly-large ziplock baggies or plastic containers. Then they take them and dump them into the counter machine for their accurate count. Simple.
You might check your bank and see if this isn't the case too. This would save you A LOT OF TIME and even a little extra money !

$21 for a box of 1000 is a lot. I just checked ebay and you can can it for under $5 with s/h.

In my area, Chase bank only takes rolled coins, Wells Fargo only takes unrolled. Crazy, huh?

I haven't found a bank in my area that will take rolled coins. They all want them in bags so they can feed them directly into their coin counters, so no wrapping needed. I just rip 'em open & dump them in a canvas bag when I've examined them. Much faster. And I recycle both the paper rolls and the plastic wrap they come in.

My local BofA prefers to have them back loose. And, they provide the bags. All that's needed from me is to have my name and account # written on the bag when I turn them in.

I opened a "free" checking account with them about a year ago. I've got $25 in the account, and I'm able to buy boxes of cents, nickels, and dimes whenever I want. I've been told that they'll also order me halves if I want them.

4 of the merchant tellers there save me all the wheats that they find. About twice a month, I take 'em a box of doughnuts or cookies.

My Canadian banks want rolled coins. When I go into the US I go to a bank that takes lose coins and puts them in a counting machine, they even gave me a bank bag to put the lose coins in and I don't even have a US account.

Home Federal accepts NOTHING rolled. Not even 50c. My teller queen tells me it was policy that every single roll must be opened, counted, then re-rolled. They changed policy, thank God! I can get a couple boxes of nics in the morning, bring 'em back before closing; and off they go back to Loomis. Just to have them re-rolled. Everything changed here when we made nat. news about people buying gas from conveinience stores with 25c rolls packed with whatever would fit. This was BIG. 1 wk. alone they got over $10,000 in fuel. Some sort of organized slime from down south was responsible. It's nearly impossible to buy a coke with a roll.

I used to reuse mine, even the shotgun String and Son ones... But when my bank switched to the Brink's shrinkwrapped rolls, I couldn't reuse those ones (sad to say, I even tried lol)... That basically put an end to my CRH adventures lol
