I saved in change every cent i saved using coupons for 18 months a few years ago. If i used a10 cent coupon 10 cents went into the tin. I only used coupons for things I really use. Even the Coupons for online shopping – free shipping etc I would figure out what I saved and put that amount into my Tin. Any coins i found on the ground also ended up in the same tin. I started doing it to prove a point to my siblings – that the money saved in coupons does add up. i saved enough to pay my share of a group trip to Hawaii – which was just over 2000 dollars at the time. My sisters and mom started using coupons after that and quit telling me it was a waste of time.

Now THAT idea I like. A lot.

I’m all about putting away the would-be-savings into ACTUAL savings!

In reply to Megan @ Megan And Eggs. Lots of banks used to have their own (free) coin counting/accepting machine but they seem to keep disappearing :( Guess it ended up being too much hassle for them?

In reply to Christine @ The Pursuit of Green.

I know, I run into “cash only” places all the times yet people always seem to think they never need cash? I just feel comfortable having some one me at all times – even if I end up pulling out the card more so than the bills.
