My local branch requires too many hoops to be jumped thru to take coins to the bank (roll them, then put your name address and account number on each roll),. plus their hours aren't practical.
The CoinStar machines are convenient, I just have to remember to have that change with me...
When I lived in NYC, if I seperated the change, pennies in one bag, nickels in one, and dimes in another, I could take it to the local bodegas and they'd weigh it, and give me the cash for it - -they were usually correct within a few cents, saved them the trouble of going to the bank, and made my life easy.
