Another option to consider is Coinstar redemption in the form of a gift certificate (popular option is Amazon). No redemption fee is charged.
In addition to the typical grocery store locations, the Coinstar directory suggests that there's a kiosk at Rivieria on the Strip. (I presume other casino locations as well ... surprised they haven't partnered to offer slot coin coupons)

RE: [vpFREE] coin redemption?
MSS is where I was going for nickels and quarters. Now they saw no nickels
(or pennies or dimes.) Western is closed.

Most places downtown will take everything but dimes and pennies. The
best I know of for dimes and pennies are the Wildfire casinos which
charge 5%.

Re: [vpFREE] coin redemption?
The last I heard, several years ago, was that the Western took
everything. Is it still open?

[vpFREE] coin redemption?
Anyone know of any Las Vegas casinos (or a bank?) that will still accept
outside coins for a coin counter machine at the cage? I keep my loose
change in a bucket and used to turn them in every now and then but my places
no longer do it or they charge extra for it. Any thots/tips?
Thanks.

[vpFREE] Re: Stations casinos VP
I'd say that FPDW is a winner over TDW if you would be playing 25c on both.
At Stations the return plus single points for FPDW is 100.76% + .075% = 100.835%.
TDW is 99.92% + .30% = 100.22%. (Points there can be used for cash, freeplay or comps.)
You might get a better mailer for playing TDW than FPDW, but their mailers have been
pretty minimal and erratic. Getting much in discretionary comps from a host after playing
either of these games is probably unlikely. And as the other poster said the variance of
TDW is very high.

TDW or FPDW? TDW is 99.9% and FPDW is 100.7% but my understanding is that FPDW
has drastically reduced points and Triple Dueces Wild still gets full comps and cashback.
Thanks in advance.
