Flat out I don't like carrying around change. When I get change I leave some in the car in case I have to pay for parking or something. Otherwise I bring it in the house and toss it in a jar in my dresser drawer. Well over the years that turned into two over flowing jars. Recently I went to SEFCU and used their change machine. It counts it and puts it in your account. Pretty cool.
See if you can guess how much I had with the videos below.
The other day I had come Christmas cash and a little time on my hands so I bought a couple of shirts. I paid cash and didn't grab any of the change in my care. The worst possible total came up... guess how much change I got back to start my new collection.
Here's the most ironic part. Look at where I was shopping. If anyone should have a "take a penny" jar it should be them, but nope.
