Thank You…Congratulations on your first recovery..
It’s amazing that people use the machine and always forget to check the reject tray

No coinstar finds for me
I use to get extra change from the convenience store change return at the cash register before I retired, two trips a day for coffee use to pay off

I was very surprised to see some coins in the reject tray.
Usually there’s only dust

We have been to the four islands and want to go back.
It’s a fantastic place to visit and the scenery is amazing.

It's always a welcome surprise because so often there's nothing.

Sometimes I think the depositors do not know that there is a rejection tray

Thank you
I take any change ..bottle deposits ..etc..and put it towards some spending money when we hopefully return to Hawaii

I think you are right... they here the sound of coins falling but don't realize they are being rejected...

 

[billb]

Not bad !

For once I found something
After checking out at the register it’s worth a peek before going out the door

For a majority part of my working years our family vacation was a one night stay at a hotel with a pool.
We managed to get discounts on flight’s which significantly helped with Hawaii..
Along with the slim chance of finding coins at coin star cashing in my detecting finds at times adds up.

CM .I rarely used to go past those machines
Since I’ve seen your success I now also take a peek more often

Congratulations Bill! I have never yet found any change in a CoinStar machine. I used to check pay phones and vending machines and I have found a lot of coins in them, but never is a CS!

Thanks again for asking about Detecting ..Next visit hopefully sooner than later I will bring the detector and stay longer

Thank you it’s very rare for me to find some coins at coin star but I now find it worthwhile to take a peek.
Thanks again for the advice on the phones and vending machines.
Next time I’m at a gas or truck stop I’ll do a quick walk through inspection
