@TaRDy I kinda want to change my answer to be less since I just filled a cup with $60 in quarters, and that is not all quarters, probably 1.5 times the volume of my cup....eh, idk
I once took a handful of change and got $30 out of it, but that was a lot of dimes and quarters, so if it's dense in those, it could be quite a lot. $84.95
Man, a lot of y'all are terrible at this game. The actual total: $77.72. The average guess was $51.80. @SColburn got the closest with $74.68. @DrunkCat deserves special mention for getting two cents away from the post-coinstar-fee total ($69.25) @galmaegi didn't have any insider info when she guessed within 63 cents from the total. @hollboll and @Chad (edit: oops, @chadp) totally cheated though. Congrats to those who did well! Until next time I clean out my car, goodbye and spay and neuter something.
@Moose Oh damn it, I didn't take dollar coins into the average. I should've saved my calculations, I basically used the quarters to determine the volume of the conic shape and just took the average value/volume of the coins.
Woohoo! Experience pays off. The container I have for my spare change is roughly the same size. So I guessed close to my typical haul and added a few bucks for dollar coins (I usually keep the few I get). :-) I, too, put mine into Amazon $$ to avoid the fee ... (don't tell @snapster)
I was compelled to search out the " You Tried" trophies mentioned further back in the thread. FroodyFrog, I found the site you did and I agree that I don't want to post that vendor's address-- what a dumbarse name they've come up with. But, this site has a fun-filled category called "Far Out Awards" that I believe lives up to its name. Many weird, wonderful and flat-out tacky joys await your perusal. If the Meh nabobs don't snag one of the Chattering Teeth trophies for their next Employee-Of-The-Year or whatever, I will be sooooooo disappointed in them. http://www.faroutawards.com/far-out/?sort=bestselling&page=1
Where is a banana when you need one.
@MrMark For scale, I included an american quarter in the picture
@Moose i assume price is right rules?
@moose Is there a prize?
@galmaegi Sure, but before anyone asks, it is not the coins or the cash I got from the coins. I'm keeping that.
@Moose Okay... my guess is 78.35
@Moose i'll just take the stuff you bought to get the change. Fair right? ;)
@galmaegi @moose 77.72
@galmaegi 78.98
@Moose - If I win, hope the prize is the glass 'bucket'.
$93.68

Don't rush me, I'm still counting them.
@Barney Darn, I lost count!
Still counting...
.25 +.25 + 1.00 + .05 +.05 + .01 +.01 + .01 + .01 + .10 + ...
@Barney Anybody have a calculator?
@Barney Borrow whatever you need!
@brhfl Yikes! You got instruction manuals for those suckers?
@brhfl - Whoa, are they multiplying?
@KDemo I believe they are capable of doing that.
@Barney - To sum it up, I was just on a tangent. I guess with negative results.
@KDemo You've been hanging around @AttyVette too much.
... and .01. My guess is $74.67 Did I win? Did I win? Huh, huh, huh?
@Barney
The answer is already posted and you still didn't get the correct amount.
(Unless that's part of the joke. Hmmm...)
@FroodyFrog But... But... I worked so hard.
11 pounds and 3 ounces, counting the bucket.
114 hours and 39 minutes on a parking meter.
31 loads of laundry, but you would have to convert everything to quarters.
... and 30 days in jail, if you stole it.
3/4 of a bucket.
@therealjrn looks closer to 7/8
$111.12
$122.53

Just drop it in a tub of water, and measure how much water is displaced.
@KDemo but then you would need to know ratio of quarters to pennies nickles and dimes
Could you give a list of the quantity of each denomination?
@FroodyFrog Then it's not a guess, is it?
@compunaut mehbe...some folks don't cipher so gooder.
@compunaut
Then it would possibly be a word problem. I'm horrible at them.
@FroodyFrog Me too - that's why I guessed
@FroodyFrog I have all the best words.

Why did you post a picture of my leg? (The rest of me is below the surface)
@FroodyFrog frogs have weird legs...

At the time of this comment, the exchange rate I saw somewhere was 17.22 pesos to 1 USD, so whatever that is using math.
I'd prefer my prize to be paid in fish tacos.
$24.19
I was going to average all the guesses, but then I was like, Meh. Congrats to the future winner.
I gave the pictures to a group of people to analyze.
They're still working on figuring out the size of the bucket.
I however, have moved past that stage.
However, I gave up after I saw the first nickle.
That being the case, my official guess is $0.05
$63.27
I'm going to guess that meh would be selling a coin counter in the near future?
@narfcake
Mehbe I'll finally own my own coin counter.
@FroodyFrog I run across them very regularly in thrift stores.

Man, a lot of y'all are terrible at this game. The actual total: $77.72.
The average guess was $51.80.
@SColburn got the closest with $74.68.
@DrunkCat deserves special mention for getting two cents away from the post-coinstar-fee total ($69.25)
@galmaegi didn't have any insider info when she guessed within 63 cents from the total.
@hollboll and @Chad (edit: oops, @chadp) totally cheated though.
Congrats to those who did well! Until next time I clean out my car, goodbye and spay and neuter something.
@Moose Next time, take the gift card option; Coinstar doesn't levy a fee if you put it all into, for instance, Amazon money.
@Moose
Is it MY fault that I gave up after counting just a nickle?
Nope, it's @KDemo's fault
Also, know that we know the total (before Coinstar did their "stuff"), @hallmike had an ironic guess.
@Moose
@hollboll
The quality of the gif is bugging me.
@harrison That was 100% my intention but the dumb coinstar I went to didn't let me. Apparently it varies based on location.
@Moose This posts totally sounds like I'm not the winner. :(
@galmaegi
I found a company which sells "You Tried" trophies, but they are using a different domain address now, and I'd rather not post it.
@Moose Oh damn it, I didn't take dollar coins into the average. I should've saved my calculations, I basically used the quarters to determine the volume of the conic shape and just took the average value/volume of the coins.
I demand those two cents as a consolation prize.
@Moose I'm just going to chalk my failure up to rounding errors. Floating point arithmetic, am I right?
What? You didn't want the exact total backwards?
@Moose i just guessed 40ish because that's how much i always seemed to have when i was still cashing in coins... in the 90s
nope, different person.
poor @chad wasn't involved here.
Woohoo! Experience pays off. The container I have for my spare change is roughly the same size. So I guessed close to my typical haul and added a few bucks for dollar coins (I usually keep the few I get). :-) I, too, put mine into Amazon $$ to avoid the fee ... (don't tell @snapster)
@SColburn -
: Congratulations!
I guess I figured there'd be a lot more pennies.
@medz I guess some people have better change than others.
I was compelled to search out the " You Tried" trophies mentioned further back in the thread. FroodyFrog, I found the site you did and I agree that I don't want to post that vendor's address-- what a dumbarse name they've come up with. But, this site has a fun-filled category called "Far Out Awards" that I believe lives up to its name. Many weird, wonderful and flat-out tacky joys await your perusal. If the Meh nabobs don't snag one of the Chattering Teeth trophies for their next Employee-Of-The-Year or whatever, I will be sooooooo disappointed in them.

Some of those trophies look erm... "interesting"
