My guess is the plastic bags will break, leaving you pennyless. :)

I used to do that with my 2 boys. I would then split it between them. They would be jumping around like a couple of nuts watching the counter go up. The things you remember.

The bank will do it for you?
I've been using coinstar at the grocery store and over the years the VIG has jumped from an initial 1% rake to I think it's 7% now, or close to it.
Will B of A do it?

I've saved all my change since i was 6 years old. I am up to around $3000 that I have rolled. I've done all the large change, but still have my nickels, dimes, and pennies. I used to keep it all in one pail so that I could feel like Scrooge McDuck, but started rolling it last year. Last time I weighed, it was over 60lbs.

I read somewhere that the U.S. Govt. estimates 10 billion dollars in PENNIES are uncirculated. Either in couches, drawers, dryers, etc.
What a waste.
I too have a big glass bowl I put I all my change in. It weighs about 75 pounds. For some wierd reason I don't want to cash it. It's like I'm addicted to saving my change. If something cost 5.07 and I have the .07 cents, I still pay with 6 dollars.
I know, it's stupid.

I do exactly the same... i am obsessed with saving change now. We have $1 and $2 coins, so it adds up fast here. If it's $5.07, I am gonna pay with a $10 and get $4.93 in change.
