You know the hardest part about the christmas season is being able to save money. Some of us just dont seem to be able to do it with all the DEALS and STEALS that are being advertized. But here is one of the quickest and easyest ways to save money during this time of year. 1) The change A new trend to saving money is never use your change, just stock pile it in a drawer or be like me and get an electronic coin sorter. Never use your change for anything, always break a dollar and throw your change in your stock pile. it adds up, this weekend I rolled the coins I had saved just for these last two weeks and came up with almost $100 Ok well I gave my idea to saving money, I know most of you have your own so share them with us, lets not see if we cant get people to become savers. instead of just spenders.

We also save up our loose change. Also we have Bank of america that any transaction that they put the change into our saving account. The little bit really adds up.

In my state (NY) we have Commerce Bank which has a coin counter. Pour your coins in and it spits out a ticket. Bring the ticket to the teller and either have them give you cash or deposit it into your account ( better option ). It's free to cash in your coins you don't have to have an account with them to do it.
