Do you keep a coin bank/piggy bank?
Have you ever made it full?
I have this really large coin bank,
I have bought it 1 1/2 years ago.
But until now I still haven't reach halfway of it.
What I am doing now, is everyday I will put 5Philippine peso coin.
Then if i still have change, I will put them in there.
Mostly 5php coin or 10php coin.
Hopefully I will reach it's full capacity.haha..
How about you, do you have these coin bank/piggy bank at home?
How do you fill it with money? or do you fill it with other things, like letters.
Oh, I remember.
When I was still in College, I have a friend who ask friends and classmates to write down things for her, like letters and little notes and things they wanted to tell her.
Then she would open it after reaching the coin bank to full or after the graduation.
Oh well, I just wanted to share.

Yeah I have a coin bank. I save every coin I get and beleave me I get a lot because I work at a grocery store and I buy a lot of drinks and some times food and I collect a lot of change from that so whenever I get that change I put it in my coin bank then when I have a lot of money I cash it in. Last time I cashed it in I made over $90 Im hopping to go for a $100 next time.

I do have piggy bank in fact I have 2 one is my sons the other one is mine. In my sons I put all my silver change 5c, 10c, 20c and 50c every day I empty my wallet and take all the silver change and put it in there. at the end of the month I take the money to the bank and most often than not it is full. The other one is mine and I put all the gold coins. That one is for spending money for our holiday (we are probably going on holiday next year to europe) I hope I can save $500 that way. Its money that I dont miss and it adds up. I also have a hiding place (not even my husband knows about it) and everything that I can spare I put in there so I can use that money for the plane (in 1 month I maneged to put away $100 so by this time next year my sons ticket would be payed off using that money)
