I cleaned up my car last week with some help fro my brother. I found some money buried under the seats and carpets. I have a little change ‘jar’ that I placed the money in. Twice I was going to pick up food and use the money and I instead got treated from my car pool group (I was driving by the way). Sweet.

Having a change jar can be an asset

I wasn’t doing using the change jar because I was poor, but I want to use the money I actually already have instead of pulling from the bank account. Since I started last week, I have about $9 in my coin jar.
