    I keep a coin jar on the kitchen counter and we empty it about once a year (we also use it for extra papers and sodas :) )

    I have a vacation coin jar . . . someday – a cruise! It is in my office and we add all pocket change to it.

    I have a coin jar…I try not to count it very often so I don’t have the urge to spend it! Trying to decide what to use it for. Probably something luxurious I wouldn’t normally buy for myself :)

    We have three coin jars (the one in the laundry room is the fullest) but I haven’t counted it lately. We will usually use our “coin money” when we go on vacation for something special.

    My change collects around the house until I either take it to the bank, or stick it in a Coinstar machine.

    I have a coin can and give my loose change to a charitable organization, International Justice Mission, that is working to end human sex trafficking. $1,000 frees one girl from sex slavery.

    Do you keep a coin jar? How often do you count your change? What do you use that money for?

    We have one LARGE change jar. We only count it when we are taking it to the bank to cash in. We use the money from the change jar to finance our children’s extracurricular activities such as Girl Scouts, swimming, softball, etc. It helps us pay for something that keeps our kids active!

    we have coins in mason jars….but rather than counting frequently, we seem to just start a new jar. Should be fun to have a little extra spending money someday!

    We do have a jar labeled “loose change” I usually use it for the kids and I to grab a quick snack at McDs or treat on the way home from the playground. It usually doesn’t make it to Coinstar very often:)

    We save our change up every year for our vacation. We use to buy souvenirs or eat out.
