    Does anyone know where all there is those machines for counting coins in Letterkenny? And if they generally charge the same rate to use?

    Cheers.

    Can't remember how much it charges but there's a machine in Centra in Glencar.

    Tesco used to be great for offloading change before they installed the slots. Now it just takes longer.

    I remember there been one there although last time I was in it appeared to be out of use. I'll check again.

    I know Supervalue in Ballybofey have (or had) a machine and I think it was around 50c charge for every €10. I never used it so Im not sure if that figure is actually correct.

    The reason I mentioned Ballybofey is that its likely that these machines are in all Supervalue shops around the county. I assume theres a Supervalue branch in Letterkenny and if so it might be worth a visit.

    Wow! I thought there was still one there somewhere. I know they were in the courtyard a number of years ago and assumed they had moved to other premises.

    Yeah, the SuperValu in Donegal town has one also. Not used it but think there's a percentage charge.

    Moved down to the shopping centre where Argos and all are. But that closed as well and is now Dealz

    Tesco have a machine that charges 10% of your change, think it's 9.9 c per euro
