    I have a coin jar that needs to be counted. It’s been full for quite awhile and I’ve started a second one. It’ll go towards bills when it does get cashed eventually. I’d love to win!

    I have a coin jar that rarely gets count. My boyfriend uses the coins to give our boys a nickle every time they find one of my bobby pins, hehe. They love to hunt for my bobby pins now!

    We have a coin jar and alot of loose change goes in there. We use a cash envelope system for groceries and have a set monthly budget. All the change I get from each shopping trip goes in the change jar. In the past we have used it to supplement vacations but we haven’t taken one in a while. We hope to soon, though! Even my son puts his change in the jar! He calls it the “I really want to go on vacation” jar!

    We have a 5 gallon jug that we throw our change in. We don’t really have anything that we save it for. I get antsy once in awhile and roll it and put it in the bank.

    We used to have a coin jar, but we never cashed it in. So it was almost like not having a coin jar. I gave it away to my father. There must be at least 40 bucks in it.

    I do have a coin jar but don’t count it and cash it in until it’s full. I usually buy something I’ve been wanting for a while but didn’t want to spend the money on it.

    I use an old vase that I throw my coins into. I also have a change purse at work. I normally cash it all in around the holidays and treat my kids to dinner and a movie when things get chaotic. I already “Like” DSM on FB and will Coinstar here shortly. :)
