How much ya got?

[Fallon]

<p>I've been throwing my change in a can holder for a few months now, just dumped it and and was surprised to have $43.50 in dollar coins, quarters, dimes and nickles.</p><p>So... How much ya got?&nbsp;</p>

[cupcakelove]

Last time I emptied my coin jar I think it came out to about $87.&nbsp; That was about a month ago, and I think there's maybe a few bucks in it now.

i use to be able to collect alot of change, but now that laundry costs quarters i hardly have any spare change lying around.&nbsp; it kind of sucks i use to love cashing in change at the end of the year.

Not a clue.&nbsp; I raid my 5 gallon jug when I need emergency funds.&nbsp; It hasn't been long enough from the last time I raided it to even look at the jug yet, so I'd say no more than like 5 bucks.

<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">Back in October, I had been collecting change for about two&nbsp;years, and then brought them into Commerce Bank, where they have a change machine.&nbsp; Apparently, I had about $480 dollars.&nbsp; Helped to pay for some vacation expenses.</font>

<p>so with this thread my jug might have anywhere between $437.50 (based on Badorties calculations) and $1400.00 (based on Feralboy's calcuations)</p><p>Either way, Keep Douggrasso away from my jug, he's trying to rob me!!!!!</p>

<p>Each year my wife and I take our spare change and chuck it one of those 5 gallon water jugs.&nbsp; I even throw a 10 or 20 spot in once in awhile if I have a nice hit gambling or win a pool or something.&nbsp; When we cashed out at Commerce Bank, (free coin counting machine...the best)&nbsp; last August the day before our Vacay, we had a total of 381 beans!&nbsp; Nice chunk of change to brig on vacay.&nbsp; Paid for some dinners, gas to and fro, and some adult bevies along the way.&nbsp; Nice suprise.&nbsp; The jug is a quarter filled for this year already, although its all dinominations, pennies, nickles, dimes and quarters.</p><p>Peace...seeee yaaaa</p>
