Coin shortage in the US. Bar boxes?

The coin “shortage” is because people are not out using their coins in vending machines, laundromats, pool tables etc. They are just sitting in people’s homes. I for one say open those places up and watch the coins, and people, come out of hiding.

Don’t see how there could be a coin shortage, lots of them around. Hell, I got a couple big jars of em, right here.:grin:
Will you Guys stop feeding this troll?
In a couple days his next thought provoking question will be...
’I left a cube of chalk in my jeans pocket and my mother washed my laundry. Now my white socks are blue. How can I get them white again?’

Silliness. Of course the answer would be to give them back to his mother!
Thanks. Makes sense now
I literally laughed out loud
This kid used to irk me with the constant insane posts. I now look at him as our court jester...here to amuse.
Strangely enough, I have over $500 in coins in a bucket, I can't get any bank in town (Austin Tx) to take them and put them back in circulation.
Why is that? There also is a thing called a coin star. It does charge you where as a bank is free but if a bank wont take them coin star would be a good option.
I was in the local Post Office today, sign I door asked for perople paying for stamps, or postage pay via Debit Card, or Cerdit Card. Reasons shortage of paper money & coins. Thought print, and Minot some U.S. Government.
BTW if they have Covid Infected bills, I will gladly take all if they are FREE, and spend after time in the Arizona heat.

Seriously??????????????? Even IF this was ever an issue you do know that the table can be opened-up and run on hourly basis, RIGHT??
Opened up by who, the vendor, that owns the table? They are 10 - 100 miles away. The bar owner, bartender, barmaid, does not have a key.
Every place i go the owner owns the tables. We play on opened-up bar-boxes all the time. I don't have a clue what the OP is talking about. No shortage of coins anywhere near me.
That may be the situation, for you. Not for the OP, or where I play. One vendor, total monopoly. Every table, juke box, pinball machine, etc. Nobody is going to open them up.
Not sure who is going to open up the table or how that would even work. The bartender does not have keys. Also I am not sure if the coin shortage will be an issue hence why I am asking. But trust me there is a coin shortage.
Not all banks are free, even for account holders, which I think is BS.
Coinstar charges 12%
I don't play b-boxes much but the places I go the tables are owned by club, no vendors. We open up all the time and just pay hourly. I wouldn't play bar-pool if i had to jack with quarters.
Same thing in our area. Tournaments are always played on open tables and we are charged a greens fee.
