Loose change with change to spare

It's time to cash in all those coins in your dresser drawer, piggy bank and behind the couch cushions.

That's because there's a way you can use one of those coin-redemption kiosks you see at the grocery store without having to pay a fee.

Coinstar is letting you dump your change in its machine and get a gift card from Starbucks, Hollywood Video or Pier 1 Imports without paying a fee (normally its 8.9 cents per dollar, or a $1.78 fee for $20 worth of change).

Hi Michael,

I just discovered your blog and it's fantastic. I wrote a review on our site, DelightDeals.com. We've been launching blogs targeted at women and I think they would get a kick out of your finds.

Best,
