I keep a coin jar. But it never got full because my husband would take money out to buy his cigarettes. He has been smoke free for a week now (in Iraq). So now that it can get full we’ll see how often I have to count it… but it will probably just go into the kids piggy banks instead.

I don’t keep a coin jar, I usually use my debit card all the time and hardly ever carry cash.

We keep several banks, a pig, a cup and a water bottle. We cash them in every year and try to put the money in our savings.

I do keep a jar of coins, and I cash it in when I’m desperate for money..you know, the day before payday when you need to fill your tank..

I used to stash money in random places, but since I pay for so many things with credit now, it’s hard to continue “collecting” money to save.
