Gonna make a change... for once in my life...

I've decided that it's kind of difficult to make transactions using nothing but a ridiculous amount of pennies, nickles, dimes, and quarters. Earlier this week I decided to reduce my number of coins by exchanging them using, appropriately, a vending machine. It's pretty simple; put your nickles and dimes in, push the coin return button, and out pops a shiny new presidential dollar coin. So now I've reduced my:
Two dollar bills, eleventy billion pennies, nickles, dimes, and quarters, into

Two dollar bills, four presidential dollars, three dinged-up quarters that the machine would not accept, one dime, two nickels, and eleventy billion pennies.
