What do you Ranters do with all the change laying around your house?

Collect it and CoinStar it, roll it yourself, always carrying it around using it so it doesnt accumulate, what?

I have mine in a 5 gallon water jug that I acquired from the military. Once it's full, I'm going on a vacation. We put dollars in there as well so it all adds up

So still; rolling it yourself, coinstar, taking that 5 gallon jug and slapping it down on the counter of a Travel Agent?

I'll do it myself. Coinstar wants too much.

As opposed to being at a bank where it's not accessible if the bank closes its doors and is being devalued at only 2.9% per year.

Oh wait. Forgot about taxes. Let's make that 2.92%

Disclaimer: I use banks. I just find the inflation argument for them absurd given interest rates.

I've always given it to my kids to put in their savings account. My oldest isn't as thrilled with it anymore, so my daughter gets most of it and once she has a decent amount, she rolls it, and I take it to the bank for her to put in her savings account. She's 9 and has accumulated around $1000 since she was 3 or 4. Son is 13 and has about $2000 he's saved.

Typically roll it and take it to the bank. If I want access to it immediately (in cash form) then I just go ahead and withdraw it. The bank doesn't charge some bullshite charge to deal with the change like Coinstar.

So you are a pussy. Well there's nothing wrong with that but you didn't have to announce it to everybody.
