Excellent idea! I found out that my bank will count a not-huge amount
of change into their little machine and not charge me for it.
Apparently other banks assess some sort of fee. Tsk tsk.

My credit union has some sort of machine (I don't know if it's "common
cents" or not, as they stuck their own logo or something on it) about the
size of a CoinStar and they don't seem to mind me wandering in there with
as much change as I can comfortably carry and dumping it all in there,
then bringing over the little receipt thing it spits out to the teller
and getting that amount credited to my account.
If I *didn't* have an account with them, however, they would take a cut.
