Ther is a casino in the Schipol Airport called the Holland Casino. They need to build a slot machine that takes all of the world’s common coins.
\nThousands of people file through Schipol daily leaving countries with pockets full of change that they will likely throw away when they get home.
\nNow there are a few places where you can give your change to charity – but I never find them. (By the way – US airports need the Chainge for Chairty right before every security line).
\nBut what you do with the slot machines is walk up, put in your Euros\/Quarters\/Quid, etc and pull the lever. Most of the time it just eats your money. But sometimes you get some fun $$ back like say $100.
\nThe odds in this slot machine will be bad because the cost of exchanging the “hard” currency is bad. And why not give 10% to charity. Charity would get more taking 10% off the top at these slot machines than from the little places that they currently have.
\nIt is a win win situation and people woould love Schipol even more than they already do!
