| 36.1 | Change not welcome in Andover | ANYWAY::GORDON | Make me an offer... | Wed Jul 08 1987 13:12 | 8 | 
|  |     	The last time I brought in coins (all rolled - about 2 rolls
    each of quarters and dimes) the teller told me "we don't usually
    handle coins but I need some change so I'll take it."
    
    	Last time I looked it was all spendable....

|  |   So what does DCU use when it comes time to wrap *their* coins?  Tape?
  If they've got 'em, they should give 'em to you if all you're going
  to do is turn around and give 'em back.  Make sense?  Maybe that's the
  problem... <sigh>

  (btw, I've gone to the bank and asked for coin wrappers before and they
  didn't ask if I had an account there - though I was there for another
  reason...)

| 36.3 | go to Hudson | MORMPS::WINSTON | Jeff Winston (Hudson, MA) | Wed Jul 08 1987 17:56 | 3 | 
|  | The HLO branch both dispenses and accepts penny wrappers cheerfully
must be an aberration
 | 
| 36.4 | Complain? | REGENT::EPSTEIN | Bruce Epstein | Mon Jul 13 1987 08:35 | 3 | 
|  |     Also Maynard (Mill), although last time the teller 
    apologized for only being able to give me 10 wrappers
    (a shipment was late or something).

| 36.5 | MEGA-PENNIES | PUNDIT::CHIP |  | Tue Aug 04 1987 11:00 | 8 | 
|  |     Where does one cash in 174 pounds of pennies?
    I worked at a newspaper one time and they had a machine that counted
    and rolled change the paper boys/girls on collection day but try
    and get a bank to do this.
    I figure by the time I count, and roll then write name address and
    phone number on every roll, and hire a U-HAUL I'll be retired 30
    years from now.
    Or maybe by then they will be worth more melted down...

| 36.6 | Lesee, how many pennies in 174 pounds... | ECADSR::SHERMAN | one rubber nose! | Tue Aug 04 1987 12:11 | 1 | 
|  |     Was this a wedding gift, or did you have an irate tenant? Just curious...

| 36.7 | Try a "full-service" bank | FURILO::BLINN | Looking for a job in NH | Tue Aug 04 1987 14:13 | 18 | 
|  |         In addition to my DCU account, I have a NOW account at Numerica in
        Manchester, NH.  I recently took a large bag of loose coins,
        mostly pennies but also nickels, dimes, and quarters, to their
        branch in Pennichuck Square on Route 101A (I believe this is in
        Merrimack, but I could be mistaken).  They counted them while I
        waited, and deposited the proceeds into my account. 
        
        Many savings banks, and almost any full-service bank, can handle
        loose change.  Most will want you to have an account with them,
        but you could always open an account and ask them to deposit the
        coins into it. 
        
        I suspect the DCU has such equipment, but probably only at the
        main branch at Parker Street in Maynard.  You could ask whether
        they can take the coins at Parker Street, if your branch won't
        take them.

| 36.8 | geography is correct | SAUTER::SAUTER | John Sauter | Wed Aug 05 1987 13:06 | 2 | 
|  |     Yes, the Numerica branch at Pennichuck Square is in Merrimack.

| 36.9 | also Souhegan National Bank | PULSAR::WALLY | Wally Neilsen-Steinhardt | Thu Aug 06 1987 11:58 | 5 | 
|  |     And I deposited several pounds of small change in my account at
    Souhegan National Bank in Milford.  Last I heard pennies were in
    short supply.  Have you thought of seeing if the Boston Federal
    Reserve Bank wants them?  I think they are in charge of keeping
    banks in the region supplied with currency.

| 36.10 | MY PROBLEMS BEEN SOLVED!!! | KOALA::FAMULARO | Joe, ZK02-2/R94, DTN381-2565 | Fri Aug 07 1987 15:42 | 8 | 
|  |     Today I received a telephone call from the DCU main office.  The
    individual I spoke with said that a DCU director saw this
    note and informed him of my penny wrapper problem.  He said he'd
    mail me a sufficient supply for my needs immediately and see to it
    that the ZK branch would be supplied with wrappers from now on.
    Thank you DCU.  Your addressing of this problem is MUCH appreciated!

| 36.11 | Glad your problem was addressed,.. How did they know? | SWATT::LEEBER | 1SPCS Hits Pay-dirt! Film at eleven | Tue Aug 18 1987 14:48 | 9 | 
|  |     RE: .10
    
    Just curious;
    
    Did the person you spoke with say that the note information came
    from Mark Steinkrauss or did some other DEC employee pass it to
    them?

|  |     The person that spoke with me did not say who passed along the
    information.

| 36.13 | Indian Head counts coins | DECWIN::FISHER | Burns Fisher 381-1466, ZKO1-1/D42 | Mon Aug 31 1987 12:56 | 10 | 
|  |     BTW, the main branch of Indian Head bank in downtown Nashua (the
    one on Main street, not the salmon-colored one behind it) has a
    coin counting machine.  They accept large quantities of coins on
    one particular day of the week (don't remember which).  I suppose
    they probably want you to have an account, but don't know for sure.
    (I've not done it...just seen the sign when I was in for another
    purpose.)
