    only working one i found recently was in the spar(?) near the southcourt hotel in Raheen. That was about 3 weeks ago i think
    Centra. That can be hit or miss. Well they are all hit or miss. Kinda murphys law - you pass them 10 times and they are working, the day you need it it's out of order.

    I saw 1 being installed in the Crescent last week, there's also still one in Tesco Coonagh

    The one in Coonagh never seems to be working..and at one stage I was told I could only get Tesco credit for it (which i think is a load of nonsense)

    There's one in a petrol station on the Dock Road as well, which never seems to be working either.

    (I hoard a lot of change so look for these fairly regularly :D)

    I've always used the Tesco Roxboro change machine ... most recently just last week. Go into the store and take a tight left - up to the end behind the last checkout.

    I only ever got the Tesco voucher through it, I only used it the once as well, I tend to spend my change when I get it, nothing better than being the only person in a shop and getting rid of a load of change rather than breaking a note :pac:

    Queues in banks as well as they fact they won't always allow you get notes back in exchange (might have to be deposited) and they might charge a higher commission rate, although 9.9% is fairly high.

    Neither do UlsterBank or A.I.B if you have an account but the queuing can be a pain.
    I usually bag up my change(With help from the young fella to teach him some counting\cash handling skills ;) ) and just lodge it to an account, easiest way and avoids commission too.

    I'm nearly 100% sure. The one in Dunnes in Ennis gives you a voucher.

    You could just feck the change into the self service tills in Tesco and the tunnel baskets to use up your free change. Although then you would have to carry the change around...

    If you know someone that works for Bus Eireann you can give it to them to feck into a machine that counts it and ask them to give you notes in exchange.

    I used to always give my dad bags of coppers and small change :P
