I've got one that i put all my coins in, I go to the pub probably 2 times a week, and in 2 years, Its made me around $750 each time I've emptied it.. bought a Psvita with this years one
I got a buffalo with a rubber cap at the bottom to purge the coinage from its insides. Haven't really used it since I stopped caring about finding spare change all over the place as a kid.
I have one as well. Usually I go to the bank to empty it, get a slip and deposit the petty cash. Its average $70 a month so around $800 - $900 per year of extra cash.
I once cashed out on a 100 dollar coin jar with my girlfriend at the time. Later learned she went on a date with some other guy using it.
We were going to break up soon anyway for other reasons.. but huge fail there.
The last time I had coin jars, I ended up saving like $100 or something (mainly collecting loose change anywhere I saw it [13 years of collection L0L])
There used to be a forest that I'd walk through to get to the edge of a golf course, separated by a small creek. I'd take jugs like those and just totally fill them with golf balls that I sold. Good memories
Hell yeah! I've had a coin jar in my room for years now. It doesn't have that much money in it anymore right now... its mostly just filled with pennies. When I used to go out clubbing almost every night and my bills would turn into huge piles of change, I actually had hundreds of dollars in toonies and loonies in the jar and even a few bills, but I eventually figured out how much cash I had sitting in there and depleted the whole jar.
Now that pennies are no longer being made, I am going to save my huge stash forever for the nostalgiac value
I got one, it's a small easter island head cup, i made in elementary school. takes me sometime to fill it up, and it's usually like $25 in change, with a few foreign coins.
