$2.00 and up. I wonder if you can refund miss cut keys. Its a brand new machine at my local Walmart and its by the checkout section.

Stick in an exotic key?

All the Lowes home improvement stores around here are going to a similar machine called "minute key". I've never used one but I've heard that keys from that machine are more reliable than the ones cut by a Lowes employees. Sometimes the employees will even send people from their counter to the minute key machine because they don't want to/don't know how to cut keys

...but I've heard that keys from that machine are more reliable than the ones cut by a Lowes employees...

Have to check out the local Wally World and see if they have one. May have to get an employee to help me if the machine can't copy a KESO.

I can not be positive until I try it but I have heard that this machine will "read" the key and gauge the nearest cut and code cut the new key. I have recently been handed duplicates made by these things and they were all fresh looking keys. I asked one customer how well it worked and he said better than his original. I will have to take a worn key to one of these things and they it out.

Will do, if they have one of those machines here. I'll even take a picture for you!

The Lowes by my house has one, called insta- key or minute key. Apparently cuts transponder car keys too! I need to stick a Best or something in there and see what it does. Maybe a Primus!

Here is my compensation test I did this afternoon. My pics tell the story... Go ahead and throw away your Do Not Duplicate Stamps!
This machine does small cabinet keys- auto transponder keys and house and commercial. Say goodbye to auto security don't let anyone borrow your car they can make keys for it without any I.D.

but will it do Bests? or Schlage Primus?
