    I normally just throw it in my son’s piggy bank. We normally don’t count it until they are close to full or he wants something and we need to know how much money he has toward it. :)

    Our loose change usually ends up in one of three places. So when each of those places gets full, I try to take it in to a coin machine.

    I don’t have a jar, but do have a couple of receptacles for coins. I don’t count them, just use the change for things if I start accumulating too many. I use some to replenish my parking meter or toll money.

    We have a coin jar that we empty twice a year and put in our daughter’s savings account. It usually gets her about $100 a year, not bad for so little effort on our parts. :)

    I made our coin jar out of a frosting tub and decorated with scrapbooking supplies. Makes saving so much more attactive. =]
    We only count it once or twice a year and usually will cash it in at CoinStar to get an Amazon gift certificate.
