Dan's Dagblad

I just tried ditching what feels like a 15 pound bag of coins that have accumulated over about 6 months or more. It didn’t work. The branch of my bank near work doesn’t have a counting machine, and the next bank that does only allows customers to use it. I asked at a couple places. What I did get were some ghetto change rolls, flat squares of paper with the denominations written on them. I’m supposed to fold them myself somehow, to make them useful. Had a bit of inconvenience-nostalgia, since when I went to Postbank to ask about changing the coins, I was told “they would have to be rolled, with the account number written in ink on the side of the roll, and changing the coins is only a service to customers anyway so I can’t help you regardless.” Ahh, those were the days.
