I used to accumulate change and my CU had a convienent, free coin counter in the lobby....a few times, I had 12-1500 in FREE $
. Not convenient any more, so I don't do that. If you have a long time association with your bank or CU, mebbe ask them to run it through their counter? I think Coinstar takes nice %....for them....I won't do that...just because
.
I used to donate to my "blow the hell out of it" fund
....
A charity is an awesome idea too though
