Do you stash your pocket change to save up money?

Lady_Justice @Lady_Justice (969) • United States 20 Apr 07

I have often stashed away pocket change as a source of saving money. It can add up quickly if you don't spend your change and break another dollar each time you buy something. The change can go in a jar or bank and be cashed in...
