Loose Change...

[DonEnigma]

So my wallet doesn't have a coin pocket. I don't even like them to be honest, they're far too bulky.

Problem is therefore is that when I go out to bars and clubs and even shops and pay with cash (a lot of places I go don't take card), I get change.

Any ideas on good looking coin purses or anything?

I hate coins. I use my little coin pocket that are in jeans to hold all my cash while I'm out (I don't like whipping out my wallet.) Its convinient for sure.

Every day when you get home, put that change in a piggy bank so your not massing it in your pockets! Then when you fill it allllll the way to the top, you can go out and buy a new playstation game!

Seriously, i used to just drop change in my wallet anyways, ruined the wallet. So i just save that shit up cause i dont ever want it in my pockets.

yeah coins are pretty thin.

I never take pennies or nickels ...no i am not rich, i just leave them in penny tray. I believe in "karma" leave a penny take a penny ...someone might need that nickel

Quarters and dimes are pretty easy to deal with. Honestly you will RARELY have more than 60-75 cents in loose change.


Piggy-bank-it when you get home.

Buy a piggy bank.

You just put them in the tip jar...

You Americans are lucky. In Canada, our coins go up to 2$. So if you buy something for 1$ and pay with a five, you usually get something like a 2$ coin and two 1$ coins. There's no way that you're just going to keep that stuff to the side. I just make a conscious effort to spend my coins whenever I can and keep no more than 4 or 5 on me at any time. And I never keep anything smaller than a dime.

I mostly throw them at hired guns/ waitresses ... shoot for the cleavage and or in the shoe.

Game of quarters! hahaha


I usually keep a dollar in quarters, or dime in my jeans, for parking meters

I never take pennies or i leave them in take-a-penny bin (All stores have it)

Speaking of loose change, just pay with Debit Card or Credit Card (better way to build your credit history and some credit card gives you rewards and shit. Just pay off the balance each month, that's all)


Actually, Bank of America had this program "Loose Change" where you open checking and savings account. So each time you buy something with the check card, it would round off to a next dollar and deposit remaining in savings.

So a cup of coffee at $1.35 ...and 65 cents goes into my savings account. Brilliant way to save money.

No coin purses or coins period. Purses are reserved for women.

Leave your coins in the car or try to use them as soon as you get them.
