And people call me paranoid.

Traci - we've had a change jar for the past 4 years! Started out just as a way for the kids to have extra money for our trip to DL at the time....We have a little jar...but when it's full, it's always been around the $75 range...which the kids split!

They use this for their "own" souvenir money when we vacation...

I will be all set for this competition this time next week....our jar is full right now...but we'll empty it to buy Shamu food when we're in San Diego next week!

We keep several jars around, but call them "voodoo jars." We paste or tape pictures of the desire on the jar and then fill it with coinage and paper moolah. Well, we figure it can't hurt.

Change? Oh, right, for when they don't take credit.

Actually I use mine in the vending machine at work. Haven't had a piggy bank since I was a kid.

I'm too good at using my change up. Have fun guys, and good luck!

Just a reminder that it's almost coin counting day! Is anyone still saving change?

ok just recently my wife and I had a plastic "Paris "drink tower from Vegas that we had filled up, it came to 116.74. Using quarters, dimes,nickels, pennies. I really was surprised.

I need to put my change jar in a better location,

tracilicious · 09-07-2005, 05:42 PM

33.57 here. Anyone else actually do this?

Not Afraid · 09-07-2005, 09:04 PM

Yes, but it will take an act of God to get me to count it.

libraryvixen · 09-07-2005, 09:23 PM

I did it, but I've not yet counted. I'll have it by tomorrow!
