Bank branch with coin sorter in area

kerthyfix

Does anyone know if there are banks in the area that will take a jar of change and sort it for a non-customer?

You can get that done at Commerce Bank in Park Slope—it's on Fifth Ave at, I think, First Street. Don't know of any bank right in PH that provides that service.

if you want the jingly money changed to flat bills -- the 5th ave key food has a machine

The key food charges about 10%, Commerce is free. Plus they have cookies for your dog and a cool mural.

your chances of being embroiled in a bank hold-up are 100,000% times greater at Commerce /

I can't describe the thrill I get pouring a jar of coins into a Coinstar. It's like a slot machine that always pays. One of life's true pleasures.

But you can get Peter Pan at Key Food.

Gotta love Peter Pan. Something about the brand just says "safe, healthy, and totally devoid of all foodborne bacteria".
