[quote:Anonymous Coward 41813406:MV8yMjY1Mzg3XzM4NTAzMzYyXzFBMTg3NzJE] [quote:Anonymous Coward 41700762:MV8yMjY1Mzg3XzM4NTAzMTgyXzg3MUY4RUNE] [quote:Anonymous Coward 7736082:MV8yMjY1Mzg3XzM4NTAyNzc1XzIyRDIxQzc2] I just started using the self checkout a few months ago and I have to say I love it! No more waiting in line for 20 minutes. My question is did it take the machine a few seconds to calculate how many pennies you threw in? I know if you do that at the coinstar, you have to wait a few seconds after each handful. Or did you just dump a whole Ziploc bag straight down? [/quote] No, the machine only accepts 40-50 coins at a time. If you throw in more it will spit any excess ones back out. When you are ready to checkout I click the cash option and then where the change goes in you see a green arrow, once you put 40-50 coins in the green arrow light will go out and process those coins for maybe 5-8 seconds, if you put in more coins they will just come out, you must wait for the green arrow light to light back up before inserting anymore coins in which again is 5-8 seconds. I usually just keep all the coins in a zip lock bag and dump a handful down in but stop once the green arrow light goes out because it needs a few seconds to process them. Its really cool. [/quote] Thats better than coinStar that charges what 7%? of what you dump in. [/quote]
