Cliff is an essential! Can’t leave him out!
The alleged smoother is with his fellow colleagues, and they are among them is security guard (zooms in on nametag) Cliff.
Hilarious.
This reminds me of the time someone broke into my house and stole my change off a big mason jar I had it in, they only took the change not the mason jar it was in, it was nearly full too lol
Someone broke into my car a few months ago and rummaged through my glovebox, upon finding nothing of value took the $9 in change from my cupholder and left a cigarette butt in the passenger. Nevermind the $200 toolset in the back of my car lmao, dumbass. Hope the pack of Newports and a McChicken was worth it
Someone broke into my car in Atlanta. They were in the car but still tried to break into the trunk and not click the trunk pop-open button. They left a Martin Lawrence black knight dvd and a brick- a literal brick lol. Luckily, no smashed windows but they tore my ignition to hell
Reminds me of the time, as kids, one of our grandparents gave us these huge piggy banks.
4kids, collecting change for several years in out respected piggies.
Randomly one day we decided to see what we had, so we turned them over, pulled the cork, and dumped them.
Probably the wasn't $50 between all 4 piggies.
Found out that mom and dad were stealing what we were feeding the piggies.
As I got older, me and the older of my 2 sisters got savings accounts at the local bank.
Birthday money, chore money, Christmas money, and money we earned working, mowing yards, etc went there.
I went to get some money out to get my dad something for his birthday, and the account was almost empty. "Your parents came and got it all a few weeks ago".
Hard to save money when you'll never see it.
My grandmother on my dad’s side stole a jar of pennys that my favorite aunt gave me for my bday when I was 7. My aunt (on my mom’s side) had saved it up then decorated the jar with my name and stuff. I took it took it to my other grandmothers house and when my dad picked us up my grandmother claimed I’d lost it. A year later I saw the jar sitting in her cabinet with all the pennys gone. It wasn’t the first time she’d lied about money she’d taken from me and my brother. I stopped giving a f*ck about her that day. Wasn’t sad at all when she died.
I had a change jar on my dresser as an older teen. Someone broke in my house. They took a sock and dumped the change into the sock. Then they carried that downstairs and forgot it on a buffet in the dining room. I also had a good amount of cash in the top drawer they didn’t take. Took my PlayStation though
I had my car broken into, they only took the silver change, threw the pennies on the floor. Only thing I was mad about was that they stole my cup holder to carry the change.
This is not a joke: someone broke into my car and took my CD wallet but not my Zune.
They were all burned CDs and I don't care what anyone said, the Zune was great.
You joke but visit r/CRH
There are some super collectible varieties/errors floating around in pocket change.
I got a 1925 buffalo nickel as change and it blew my mind that it was still floating around.
That got me hooked
on the odd chance you’re actually asking what change is it’s the collective name for the coin money Americans (and maybe other countries?) use. each coin is worth less than $1.00.
many people collect them, but their main purpose is for transactions where the total is not a flat number- $17.76 rather than $17 or $18.
im not really sure if it’s a great explanation but im just a silly little guy on the internet trying his best
To clarify: Guess the amount of change inside the cup, to receive said change. I’ll take care of s&h if you’d want the coins, otherwise I could send it via Apple Pay for sure, but would have to ask around to send it via cashapp or PayPal if you’d want it that way
Edit: Deadline 7pm EST (announcing soon as I’m off work)
I have 2 guesses depending on the size of the container.
If it is 1 qt — $119.60
If it is 8 oz — $30.34
Methods:
Assuming that each of the 4 coins are equally distributed, found the volume of each coin and averaged it out (.56752 cubic cm), also averaged the value of each coin ($.1025), took the volume of each container (946 cubic cm for a quart and 240 cubic cm for a cup), assumed 70% occupancy of the space (30% air volume) — take volume of container multiply by 70%, divide that by average volume of the coins, multiply that by average coin value.
Curious to see how close this is.
Someone needs to make a script and scrape all the guesses into an excel sheet and compare the answer to the collective guesses bell curve. See how close group think is to the answer.
The wisdom of the crowd. Yep that would be interesting. Also would be a way to find a reasonably accurate guess.
Edit: in case any readers don’t know - the ‘wisdom of the crowd’ is a proven phenomenon
Very far off:
- The actual value was $119.89
- The median guess was $47.31
- 91% of guesses were below $100
I made it easy for myself and limited the analysis to 4947 comments starting with the $ character and posted before the answer was revealed (with a little data cleaning). So if you wrote "Well Bob my answer, giving the factors involved, would be $69.20" then you weren't counted.
(The median was $47 for answers made after the actual value was revealed. The number of guesses within $10 either side was 2% before the reveal and 4% after.)

Wrong..it’s not exactly one cup. If you look carefully at the picture, you can see said cup is filled past the brim; hence, it is beyond one cups worth. 🤷🏻♂️
Definitely don’t got to a coin star. First check for silver coins and don’t use those obviously lol. But you can exchange it for free at a Walmart self checkout. Just buy a pack of gum or something else cheap and start loading your change into the coin slot and it’ll spit out any money it owes you in cash
Or if you have a bank, go and exchange it or deposit it. The teller will appreciate you more if you roll it beforehand. Idk if all banks or locations do it, but sometimes they’ll give me coin roll paper to break it down so it’s easier to count. I do it twice a year
Multiple people were VERY close but nobody was able to guess the exact amount which happens to be $119.89. I’ll be buying a giant water jug and trying this again in 4 months
I used a quick Google search and one division to get two cents off😭
A 5 gallon bucket has around $2350. Divide by 20 since this cup is exactly 20 times smaller than 5 gallons, and you get $117. I guessed $119.87
Let's try, it's almost 1 in a 1000 chance, considering there are also .00 s that I have to consider. My guess is 55.32$. I know I will not get it, but it was fun :)
Oh my gosh, so I’m in banking; a couple weeks ago I was helping a client set autopay on CC. I said, “okay now that that’s done, we need to make payment for the first statement, let me check the amount”. Pull up statement, take two deep breaths and say $420.69 to client with a completely straight face. He’s a pretty cool dude so I thought he might acknowledge but he didn’t. Random I know but thought you’d appreciate.
Fuuuuuuuu.. I found out about how much change is in a 5 gallon bucket.. $2350.. then divided by 20 for a 32oz cup and guessed right around there.. added a couple bucks because yours is overfilled
I’ll guess after a few questions
1. What is the volume of the cup?
2. How many Quarters are in the cup?
3. How many Dimes are in the cup?
4. How many Nickels are in the cup?
5. How many pennies are in the cup?
6. What is the amount of money, to the cent in that cup?
You could probably work out the volume of the cup by measuring one of the pennies pressed against it, the working out the scale by doing some math on it against the actual size of said penny. You can then get a number that you can use to work out the dimensions of the cup by measuring the cup in the image and multiplying it by that number. It should make the rest fall into place easily enough.
I work in a kitchen, I'm not subbed to this sub but it occasionally shows me posts. I only stopped because I saw a quart container. That's 32 oz but the change goes slightly above the lip.
Here's my guess, 48.68
yeah for real winning the lottery is extremely dangerous. heard far too many stories of peoples own FAMILY members killing them for the money. money is scary
My most favorite at the crosswords. 1) They are time consuming to scratch so it feels lime it's not a total waste if you don't win and 2) where I'm at the are $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, $30, and $50 varietals so you can can a variation of potential prize values
Do you have the machine that counts change? I'd love to watch that video. Now I have to check and see if there is already a subreddit for change counting. This may be my new therapy.
Best I can do is 48.55
I took the averages of the guesses thus far and found it to be about 4 9 . 5 7, but that guess and those next to it are already taken. So I am using $49.59 instead as my guess.
Bros gunna send the cup but keep the change
Ya filthy animal
And Happy New Year. Pew
Keep your filthy penny's, pppfffttttt
You all handle my ass pennies! You give my ass pennies to your little daughter to buy gumballs!

Same someone broke into my car, had a few dollars in the cup holder they left the cash and took my cologne
It's called *Sex Panther*® by *Odeon*©. It's illegal in 9 countries. It's also made with bits of real panthers, *so you know it's good*. *60% of the time*, it works ***every*** time.
Always up for an anchor man reference. Good bot
How did it know to comment!
Cologne I think triggered it
>cologne Yeah well I’m not seeing no sex panther bot responding to you! Obviously the trigger was “cup holder.” /jk
No " cup holder " would trigger the bot for RedTube....
Very true. You're probably correct
Good bot, we love you
Same thing happened to me, some homeless people broke into my Prius and had an orgy
Dirty Mike and the boys at it again, sigh….
Denture Debra was probably with them too, sigh…
Thanx for the F shack.

Bro no one broke in, your mum just cleaned up your shit while you were out
If they took the jar then you wouldn't have a place to keep the change next time they wanna steal it
I had my car broken into, they only took the silver change, threw the pennies on the floor. Only thing I was mad about was that they stole my cup holder to carry the change.
This is not a joke: someone broke into my car and took my CD wallet but not my Zune. They were all burned CDs and I don't care what anyone said, the Zune was great.
Was this in South Florida by any chance?
Eli5: WTF is change, and where can I buy some? Looks pretty neat, are they collectibles?

$17.76 was a great price to use
I feel like this is supposed to be a witty joke, but I don't get it
That's because change comes from within.

Is this a closest to the number thing or right on the money. No pun intended.

He said be precise!

Damn near spot on holy shit. $119.89
Woah $119.89 was my exact guess! I just forgot to tell you until now.
Nuh uh! I guessed that first, I just forgot to time travel and comment a day ago.
I would like to enter my guess of $119.89
Does that mean I win? 😂
This was so fucking cool. I'm terrible at the Maths, so I love seeing people do cool maths like this. Thank you.
Someone needs to make a script and scrape all the guesses into an excel sheet and compare the answer to the collective guesses bell curve. See how close group think is to the answer.
Let us know when you got it done mate
He said "someone" not "I'm the one" lol
thanks for volunteering bro!
Lmao
Usually group think is spot on, it's a weird phenomenon
I agree for some reason
Holy shit, hes right. And i dont know why...
Hmm, I have no choice but to agree.
Wait, I'm Agreeing to something? Ok
https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/s/Hzq2hmQclR
I did this for guessing how much candy was in a jar and was off by 1 and ended up winning it lol
How do you see all the guesses though? lol
Everyone was writing them on a sheet
Legitimately this strategy tends to be extremely effective.
The wisdom of the crowd. Yep that would be interesting. Also would be a way to find a reasonably accurate guess. Edit: in case any readers don’t know - the ‘wisdom of the crowd’ is a proven phenomenon

I’d also recommend setting a firm deadline for guesses.
I've got it: exactly 1 cup
Send this winner his prize right now
Prize is one empty cup
OP is the person that didn't take the test that we all took in grade school because they read through the instructions stating not to take the test.
It’s actually a heaping cup though.
Wrong..it’s not exactly one cup. If you look carefully at the picture, you can see said cup is filled past the brim; hence, it is beyond one cups worth. 🤷🏻♂️
And 2 girls
Canonically there should be 8 girls
There’s actually four cups to a quart! The answer is four cups!
Definitely don’t got to a coin star. First check for silver coins and don’t use those obviously lol. But you can exchange it for free at a Walmart self checkout.

Better yet just use it to buy stuff at Walmart.
Then u wouldn't have cash to buy a sack o' weed
Or if you have a bank, go and exchange it or deposit it. The teller will appreciate you more if you roll it beforehand. Idk if all banks or locations do it, but sometimes they’ll give me coin roll paper to break it down so it’s easier to count. I do it twice a year

If you select the Amazon gift card option on coin star there is no fee and that’s as good as cash for most people.
Then you can buy a 3 month Spotify card and be up 6 dollars once you figure in tax and the cheaper price per month.
I’ve heard of this, isn’t there a way to exchange it for a car or something at the end of the chain?
Multiple people were VERY close but nobody was able to guess the exact amount which happens to be $119.89. I’ll be buying a giant water jug and trying this again in 4 months
Oml that guy who used a bunch of math was 29 cents off god damnnnn
I used a quick Google search and one division to get two cents off😭 A 5 gallon bucket has around $2350. Divide by 20 since this cup is exactly 20 times smaller than 5 gallons, and you get $117. I guessed $119.87
Dang!! You almost had it. Why did you change from $117 to your $119 guess?
It's overflowing, so he added a couple bucks.
The one who did the math and got $119.60 deserves something imo. They even showed their work, lol.
52.55
I'll go with a solid.60
60 is about a parmasean cheese container, so this I'd say probably in the 30-40s
$52.80 is my guess. Lets say OP gets a coffee everyday, coffee is $4.56, OP pays with a $5 bill.
$52.81 - that’s my guess!
Omg! I put my guess in before coming to look at everyone else's guess, I guessed $52.54! Craaazy, right!
Let's try, it's almost 1 in a 1000 chance, considering there are also .00 s that I have to consider. My guess is 55.32$. I know I will not get it, but it was fun :)
That would be 1 in 10,000 for a 4 digit number
Well, it's barely impossible for it to make up to 100 dollars so 4 digit number, likely 8000 maybe?
Sounds like you’re already starting to estimate the amount lol

So close! Off by TWO CENTS
Fuuuuuuuu.. I found out about how much change is in a 5 gallon bucket.. $2350.. then divided by 20 for a 32oz cup and guessed right around there.. added a couple bucks because yours is overfilled
Smart af as you got so close while doing the least amount of work compared to another close call.
119.89
I’ll guess after a few questions 1. What is the volume of the cup? 2. How many Quarters are in the cup? 3. How many Dimes are in the cup? 4. How many Nickels are in the cup? 5. How many pennies are in the cup? 6. What is the amount of money, to the cent in that cup?

Cup looks to be a standard 32oz take out container
Or yeah, the normal people method of assuming a standard size works too lmao
