Cash in your coins
If you have a big jar of coins, you may want to check out this deal. Coinstar, the company that has coin-counting machines in grocery stores, is offering a promotion through Dec. 7 for those interested in converting their coins into a gift card. Not only is there no charge to count your coins with this promotion, but if you cash in $40 or more, you get a $10 holiday bonus. Cash in exactly $40, and you get a 25 percent return on your money. Not too bad. For details, go to the Coinstar web site.
