Ting..Ting..Ka-ching, ka-ching..Gosh, can u guess what is that sound..Well, it is actually the sound of coins in my tabung..hehe.. I smell money here..hahaha (greedy laugh).
Though I am the happiest person when my tabung is almost full, the prob is, most of my saving is in coins instead of RM notes..huhu.. Hence, my tabung becoming so heavy day by day & I x know where should I change all those coins.
Well, as far as I know there are 2 options available.
1) Change at any commercial bank.
Nevertheless, I have heard rumours that, they will charge u a certain fee if u wanna change coins to RM notes. Plus , I have once heard one of the bank's employee nagged to one of the cust who brought coins to be exchanged. So, enough bout commercial Bank then.
2) Random visit any stalls & asked them if they want to exchange coins.
Since, I rarely know any stalls owner unlike my mom or Chang2's dad, hence I leave this opt too.
However, a recent trip to Mydin USJ 1, made me realize that, hey I can change all my saving coins & at the same time enjoy my shopping at Mydin.
Here at Mydin, they actually prepare machine called Mydin Smart Syiling. I forget to snap the machine pic the other day, as Chang2 & I are so excited aka batak bout this machine. Hence, I google & borrow this pic. The machine is located outside the Mydin entrance, nearby the cashier counters. Make sure that u change ur coins first before u make a purchase in Mydin mall.

Here is the coin receipt after I deposited half of my coins in the machine, hehe. I'm loving it. On that particular day, I managed to get RM60 value in terms of voucher. Well, not too bad rite. However, there is an expiry date though whereby u have to use this voucher on the same day u deposited ur coin in the machine. It will expire if u x use it by today. Luckily, I noticed bout that, thus off we go for our Mydin shopping.
So, what are u waiting for. If u have loads or tons of coins in ur tabung, change it at Mydin Smart Syiling. It is available at Mydin USJ, Mydin MPK Klang and Mydin Sinar Kota.
That’s a pretty cool stuff! I wish we also have that kind of machine around our area here. I have tons of coins in my coin box. Well, I guess I’ll just deposit this to my bank account. May I know if the machine accepts foreign coins? #Harriett Faulks
