    Yes, several and I count them out at the beginning of each October and this year I had $400.00 in silver. Pennies I save separately and use them at the supermarket in that machine that counts them out and gives you cash for them.

    I have one little bank that I put nickles and dimes, one for quarters and a larger jug for the pennies. Not too long ago I found an old coffee can packed with coin wrappers that we chucked. I try to keep a small assortment in the car too for the drive-up window.

    Close, I have an old metal bubble gum can bank from when I was a kid, I keep all my change in it and when it gets full, then I roll it up and start over.

    Well, mine is a Travel Jar. It started out as Mad Money for trips ~ now I throw so much into that it has actually paid for most of my vacations.

    I have the huge plastic water jug that goes in the water machines. Smile
    I throw change in there and collect it until it gets too heavy to move, then I roll everything and take it to the bank.
    I mostly use my debit card though, so it doesn't accumulate like it used to.

    A lot of times, we have a jar to save for something big a year in advance. We have done a couple trips and used it as fun money and one time for my son's trumpet purchase.
