I assume people with jars of coins. Use it to weigh down bodies, cats, dogs, nosey neighbors

I keep it in a jar to use for whatever. When the jar is full I take it to the bank and put it in my son's savings account.

Coinstar doesn't charge fees if you use it for gift cards, so I just get an Amazon card. That said, I use plastic for 99% of my spending these days, so I probably only bother with turning coins in once every 2-3 years.

I collect change in a 4 liter glass Erlenmeyer flask. It currently holds about 1.5 liters.
I changed banks 3 years ago to an online bank, and forgot to convert my change at the old bank. During the pandemic, I began to use cash much less frequently and the change jugs is holding fairly steady.

There were still some cash only establishments I'd visit when I lived in Chicago. I also had a lawn service come out a couple weeks ago that only took cash or check. Fortunately I had an old temporary check from my bank to give them.
I do like to keep some cash on me, mostly for street vendors and such, but would rather pay in plastic whenever possible. I keep my change in a Jameson whiskey tube. Has to weigh 15lbs at this point. Back in college I worked at a full service carwash. I would just vacuum up any loose change on the floorboards. After close I'd empty out the vacuums and accumulate hundreds of dollars in dusty coins. |

At home I put it in a Ziploc container I'd say it's 4" x 8" until it's full then go cash it in.
At our camper I put it in a tequila bottle. I also have a full coors light party ball that I have to do something with sometime (if you know what one of those are).

The penny, the nickel, the dime the quarter...

Always keep your nickels, then send them to me. Thanks.

Best thing we ever did up here is get rid of the penny , I would highly recommend it with the other coinage I just fill up a cookie jar and roll them up and bring them to the bank at some point with toonies and loonies you don’t realize how much cash you accumulate so it can be worth the trip to the bank.

Throw it in a jar along with throwing ones and fives in a box next to it. At the end of the year I take deposit it and then send it into a Roth IRA. Typically get a few thousand dollars at the end of the year.
I do a ton of cash transactions just for this reason |
