All spare change you get from everything that you buy, put in a jar and don't touch it until it's full. When it reaches the top, use that spare change to treat yourself with a new car accessory or date night. Having something fun to look forward to having/doing will help with wanting to save your nickles and dimes every time you shop! :)

I just started a change jar. Its filling up quick! I'm trying to save money to buy a house. Anyone else have some ideas about anything else you could do to save money?
The savings jar is a great vehicle for saving. You don't have to fancy either. I have jug with a large opening and top that I currently use. My tip is to leave it in plain site so you are motivated to put money in. I do change and dollar bills!
I'm doing this with my four year old
We've been doing this since about April and have already saved at least 700$ we're thinking about a major repair that needs done or something that we're really in need of like a new bed .
Love this
It's extremely difficult for me to do a change jar. I just don't use enough cash anymore to even think about it. Now that "plastic" rewards me to use it, I pay for almost everything that way, BUT I pay off the balance every month, so no interest!
I use my change for exact change
I save my change thru the year and that's what's spent on Christmas. Of course i fill in the rest if need be.
Such great ideas here
We started doing this at the beginning of the pandemic and just recently cashed it in. To our surprise it had over $1000 in it which we used to get new tires
Cant wait
