Coin machines, where in the City Centre?

universe777 · 2008-09-26 20:52:32

Anyone know of any coin changing machines in Dublin City Centre, I have a heap of coppers to get rid of. They took the machines from Fresh Smithfield & Fresh Grand Canal Dock recently.

All well and good but that thread is from 2005, and the second last post in it says there is one in Fresh Smithfield, as of now, there is not.
I would like to know what shops in the city centre actually have a coin machine today?

There is one in the Tesco in Jervis street.

Or you could do what I do and lump loads of change into the self-service scan till machines in Tesco - means there is no charge. Works a dream for me

think there's one in Stoneybatter too. tbh I would just count myself. I don't know how much them machines cost, I know it's not loads but why give money away I suppose.

I don't think the OP is looking for a counting machine but a machine that converts assorted coinage into notes(?).

yeah I am aware of that but my point is that when counted and bagged it's simple to bring to the bank and have them do the same thing.

Looking at the rates they charge now, there's no way on earth I'd pay that amount for it to be done, complete rip off.
