If not for my strict habit of using my credit card to earn rewards on the card and interest on my cash, I'd want to play, too. It would be interesting to find out how much I could save up.

The little stuff does add up. I take most of my change and put it in an old Sobe drink bottle. Every so often I take it to the bank and usually have at least $20 in there.

I counted up my 5's the other day and have $450. Additionally, I throw all my change into a jar. One thing I am planning is to keep this growing to a set amount and then have this money on hand if ever we need to quickly evacuate or have an emergency; the last thing I want is to have to stop at an ATM.

He used to throw change in a big bottle after a little more than a year, he had a cashflow problem one month and busted open the change kitty and counted out $1,755 which saved his rear . . . the lesson learned is that little things truly do add up.
