And finally, some of the always interesting non-coin stuff found in and around Coinstar machines this year.

December coinstars were awful - one crusty zincoln for the whole month. However, December dump machines did well, but those are reported in a separate thread. I really think we should combine these "finding change" threads into ONE single thread.
