Saving change works!

We (mostly me) save change also... separate silver from pennies... I have not cashed in this batch in almost 2 years.... the last time was 10/2000... nice surprise $320..... The most I ever saved was when I was a bartender, I used a 5 gallon water jug. The total after a 18 month period...
$2200 and it was all change.

I've been saving my change for years! But after my latest trip in early December (DIS Con!), I started saving my $1 bills, too! I had $80 in ones saved by Christmas, and have about another $100 in ones since then! I haven't counted my change yet!

That's a really good idea! Saving your one dollar bills. I save change too
and it really adds up fast. Thanks for the idea!

After reading about the change you all have saved, I decided I would add mine up. We have a plastic cup in the kitchen that we throw change into--not really saving it for anything but just putting it in one place. It wasn't even all the way full and I added it up and it was $43. I was so excited. That will go toward one nice dinner at WDW in March. I put the cup back out and instructed DH to get busy filling it up again! Thanks for this tip.
