Earlier i went to the bank to dump the useless nickels, since i had a few extra rolls lying around, i decided to roll them up, they said they would charge me 10 cents per roll because i had 48 of them. I'm not sorting at the amount needed to have a counter yet, any advice for returning pennies, nickels, dimes, etc?
-Thanks

| Try to find a bank or credit union that has a self serve coin counter in their lobby. I am lucky enough to have a couple of them near me. |

48 rolls of coin is nothing, not unreasonable at all. Find a new bank. As mentioned, look into the credit unions. A lot of them either have counters in the lobby, or will take the coin loose and run it through their counter and credit your account.

| Ditto what Bluegill said -- 48 rolls is nothing. That's only $24 in nickels. |

48 rolls is 98 dollars in nickels, and I'll have a look around, thanks.
And by the way, do the coin sorters dispense money, or do you take them to the teller? |

Finding a new bank is always a good idea.. that is why there is one on every corner.
Might be more fun to spend them though. Pay a utility bill, buy gas, pay a credit card bill, or just buy pizza with them.  |
If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.

Plain and simple.

Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."

| I posted the right math without pointing out the other errors I saw. I do lots of nickels though. |
