Coinstar, Restaurants.com team up for no-fee coin counting

September 5, 2011

Consumers across the United States can now cash in their piggy banks for restaurant savings. Restaurant.com announced today its partnership with Coinstar that gives consumers $25 gift cards for every $10 in coins they feed into kiosks.

Each of the 16,000 Coinstar machines now has a "Free Coin Counting" option that when selected will show the Restaurant.com certificate option. When the process is completed and the Restaurant.com choice is selected, the printed receipt will have a unique code to redeem at Coinstar.Restaurant.com, allowing consumers to save at more than 18,000 restaurants nationwide.

"We're excited to work with Restaurant.com to offer consumers a way to stretch their budgets even further," said Engle Saez, vice president of category management and consumer experience for Coinstar. "We're looking forward to giving consumers another easy and convenient way to treat themselves and their families to a night out."
