Originally Posted By hopemax You can usually get a roll of quarters at any merchandise locations. Especially, in areas that have a machine. Just ask if you can buy a roll of quarters. Also, some places have change machines where you can get change for $1-$20. There is one right next to the bank of coin machines in the Contemporary, one in Pizza Planet at the Studios. There are others, but those are the two I use most frequently. They aren't rolled, but I carry some empty film canisters or a small bag and load them up.
