Change for Laundry
Just wondering where I can get change for laundry on campus. I asked the cashiers at commons once but they dont seem to like doing it and it usually ends up being a hassle that holds up the line.

Try the service desks. They usually will have change for you.

there's a change machine in commons, by the service desk, but it doesnt accept bills with the foil strips, which is basically al new money... or the service desk will too, and as far as i know both of those places will give loonies and quarters, perfect for laundry.

I know that Keyes will only exchange up to 5$ at a time so as long as you need less than that you're okay.

Your best bet is to go to a bank with $35 in bills: $10 for a roll of quarters and $25 for a rolls of loonies. You should be set for at least 25 loads that way.

I dont know if you need quarters, but if you do and you have other coins, POP MACHINES are you friend.

5 nickels, press return cash = 25c
2 dimes and a nickel
3 nickels and a dime

and every other combination possible

not sure if it works with bills too but you never know. AND YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO BUY ANYTHING
