Friday Thoughts: Travelers Box

Travelersbox allows coin-laden travellers to lighten their load by depositing those coins into one its automated machines at airports around the globe. The automated kiosks take your unneeded coins and bills, and then transfer the amount to your PayPal account or give you a selection of gift cards, including Groupon, the Gap, Best Buy, and yes, even Starbucks. Users also can choose to donate the money to charity, and there is no fee to complete the transfer.

Founded by Tomer Zussman, Idan Deshe, and Dror Blumenthal, the idea for Travelersbox came to Zussman after frequent trips between the U.S. and Israel.

I haven't tried this yet but it looks interesting if you have foreign money laying around.

QOTD:
Have you used Travelers Box? Would you use it it if not?
