Yeah, I have a 1 gallon glass jug I put my coins in every day. It's worth about $2-300 when it comes time to dump it.

whatever you do - don't use coinstar

I had a huge jug of change - I thought it might be 50 bucks or so. I take it to a coinstar machine - it ends up being $200. BUT, they take 10%, in my case 20 bucks. If I knew I had that much I would have counted and rolled the money my damn self.

$20 is worth 4 hours rolling pennies in my book.

I have well over $200 in change. Shoot as I've been moving I've found over $30 in my room just laying around.

And I had close to $200 stolen from me a couple years back at an old apartment.

I use a quarter every day almost of the paper so if I didn't do that I'd have even more. Plus the occassional spray down at the self wash....I DON"T use the brushes..haaa.

So yeah...save your change. Some old man picked up just pennies...for years. Donated all his pennies to a school penny drive. $16,000.

I have change from when I was in high school. Some of it was taken by my druggie brother to go buy cigerettes, but I've gotten it pretty high. I just haven't decided if I want to go coinstar or roll.

I have just a glass jar from speghetti. everytime it fills up, bring it down and use coinstar. I get about $40-50 not bad.

if you roll it, don't you have to bring it to a bank? that is more trouble than it's worth.
