    Quoted from PopBumperPete:

    just count them manually
    this is not the 80's, and you are not operating Space invaderes

    He might not be causing a yen shortage but the operator where we play league has WOZ, DI and AC/DC set for $1 and has no bill acceptors. So I’ve witnessed this guy take out a 5 gallon bucket of quarters every week. Guy is an asshole for still not bucking up and putting in a bill acceptor. The bar is actually complaining cuz of how many quarters they’re burning through. 75 rolls a week or something?

    Quoted from northofthewall:

    I collect on location (1 money bag labeled per location so I can track split) and do a data dump on a USB or take pics of the audit to have numbers. My bank has a free coin sorter so I throw it all in the machine and get a little receipt and then track in an excel. I send the location a collection update between 1-4 weeks in a month and then do a split (after GST - Canada taxes - is taken out of calculation) and send them an etransfer once a month.

    Do you use any fancy equations in Excel? My spreadsheet skills are weak so I was looking for a cheap template to track earnings
