How Much I Saved Up In Loose Change...

For some reason, my car just accumulates coins that go no where. I usually just clean them up every now and then by visiting a Coinstar machine. Well, I went to a Coinstar machine on Monday, and I thought it was interesting...In about 9 weeks I accumulated $20.67. I got an Amazon.com gift certificate so that I don't have to pay the 8.9% service fee. I might start tracking this more...kind of an interesting piece of info to know... If I saved $20.67 in 9 weeks, that's $2.30/wk. Tack on the $15.75 I save each week from quitting the smokes, and then suddenly that's $18.05 per week! Over a year, that's $938.60...after tax! Not bad...
