Map pocket on the door of my truck catches all my loose coin.
Last time I emptied it, it netted about $200.00.
No wonder the door was not closing right.

I have a piggy bank that is a Parking Meter with a clear tube. Throw whatever I have in it. Normally every couple weeks I'll take it out and spend it on something firearms related. Some little AR goody.....

I have a little tin can, when it's full, I roll it up.

Running tally is over $200.00 in pocket change. [:)]

I have a glass canister, the kind you would find on a kitchen counter, 1 for pennies, 1 for other coins. When full holds about 180 bucks.

But I let the machine at the grocery store count it for me and let it take its 9% cut.

I use one of those flour tins you would see in a kitchen.  I've got about 45$ in it so far.

I have a metal vase that I use, last time I brought it to the bank I pulled about $40 and it was only 1/2 full.

Rainman, check with your bank, they might count it for you and not charge a fee.

Not officially a piggie bank but the wife and me round up every check we write. It don't make a difference what the change is it gets rounded up. A couple of times a year she will go through the account and "find" a good size chunck of money. It's an easy way to save and guarantee no overdrafts.
