Where I am, mostly teens and young adults using them daily at one store.
When my kids were young, we saved coins and when we got a jar full, they got
to cash them in, but putting them in rolls in those days. They would have
loved Coinstar. :-)

There's one at my local Giant Food and I've been meaning to cash in my
coins, but they're in a giant sized plastic beer bottle about 3 feet
high. It's pretty full so I can't even lift it. I put it on top of my
high dresser back when it was empty but even when I'm cleaning my room I
have to dust around it, or just move it a little to get under it. I
don't know what I'll ever do with it.

LOL, yes one thing about the Coinstars they do get overwhelmed fairly
quickly and you have to wait for them to catch up. You might want to take
them in increments.

I might donate it to my sister and let her 14 year old son deal with it.
Oh, how he'd love that. He loves anything money. He has to give me back
the bottle, though. It's a Washington Redskins Commemorative thingamajig
that used to hold popcorn.

Heh, the first time I used it, something came up on the
screen like My, you do have a lot of coins! Funny.
You can only slide in so many coins at a time from the
hopper. Just keep tilting it up as it digests.

Call some hunky handy-man to lift it for you. Then you could sit on
the floor and wrap coins. <giggling>
