Every Penny Counts!

Yup, every penny counts.  No amount of money is too small and every bit counts.  Today's tip is to start a coin jar.  Save your pennies and all other change.  I keep a small amount of change in my wallet to use on a day to day basis.  Everything else goes into the coin jar.  Guys, empty out your pockets, throw the change in the jar.  DO NOT turn in the change until the jar is full.  Most banks have free coin counter machines.  Do not pay to have your coins counted, it's a waste of money.

Once you have filled the coin jar, turn it in and get the cash.  You can keep it or put it in your savings account.  If you keep the cash, use it for something fun; go out to dinner, go to the movies, see a play, buy new craft supplies, get some new clothes.  

Remember, every penny counts :)
