Coinstar Free/DisneyShopping.com Question

[kaity230]

Coinstar is now free if you choose to get certain gift cards instead of cash. Disneyshopping website is one of the options. And on the website you can buy Disney gift cards - which can be used at disney world for food, hotels etc. So my question is this - can you use the coinstar certificate to buy disney gift cards? It would really help in saving all the coins for our vacation! In theory it would work, but has anyone done this?

From what I've read on the Disneyshopping website is NO,
because that is what I was thinking of doing.
So, I just went ahead and purchased a coin counter
and my DS rolled all of his bank in less than 1/2 hour
before we run out of coin sleeves.
$150.00 dollers is better than paying the 10%.

I don't know if Commerce bank is national but they have a free coin counter and you don't have to have an account to use it. It beats rolling the coins.

I just found out from their website that you can't.

Unfortunately there is no commerce bank in my state, but if anyone else knows of a bank like this please let me know!

Lots of banks are doing this in my area. Check around locally, you will have to have an account with them for it to be free, at least all the ones in our area.

Sorry to bring up an old post, but I was just wondering about this today. Where on the website does it say that you cannot do this? I was looking for it. I called and the DS rep said that I can do this. I decided to do a search to make sure people have been able to do this. This would not be the first time that I have received the wrong information from a disney shopping rep.


*Edit. I think I found it. Ugh, why can't the reps get things straight???

Why not try it with a small amount of change $5.00 or $10.00 and see if you are able to do it. My friend and I just did hers....202.21 on Friday! She opted for cash.

Try a credit union. I used mine this week, and they only charge 2%

Where can you find Coinstar locations? I do not think I've ever seen one before.
