Coinstar, the supermarket-based self-service coin counting service, is offering customers an average of a one in ten chance to double their money

There is an 8.9% commission charge but this looks like a fab way of getting rid of all the loose change lying around the house, especially as if you do it between now and Christmas you stand a pretty good chance of doubling your money. Kids would love throwing all their coppers in a machine and having it count it for them too ! Read on for more details :

Coinstar, the supermarket-based self-service coin counting service, is offering customers an average of a one in ten chance to double their money* when they cash in their coins at a Coinstar® machine with the Coinstar Christmas Bonus. So while the European economy continues to flounder, make sure your own savings get a little boost. 

The promotion, which runs from 26^th November to 24^th December, lets customers unlock the value of their unused coins and gives each household the cash value of their transaction (minus an 8.9% commission) to help with all the present buying during December. Coinstar knows the average household has just over £27 in unused coins at home so they are here to help people get the most out of their money this Christmas. 

Shoppers simply pour in their coins at their nearest Coinstar machine which counts at a rate of up to 600 coins per minute, before issuing their voucher. The Coinstar machines can be found in more than 1,700 leading supermarket locations across the country.  

So if you are one of the 70% of the Great British population aged 16 or over who collects their spare change, head down to your nearest Coinstar machine for your chance to double your money!
