What Do You Do With The Change Received While On Shopping ?

Hi Dear Jeffreyallen! I think you have got some emotional attachment with the red pouch which has been presented by your cousin from Philippines! Better you transfer your change to some container before your pouch gets too obese and breath its last! LOL! Yes,I too do agree that it is very easy to save change, as we do it quite involuntarily to realise that we have saved quite an handsome amount at the end! Thanks for responding!

Lol! You`re probably right. I think I need to upgrade. Thanks! Take care.

Hi Dear Sreekala! I can understand that! For the people who need change on regular basis to use them, for them this change acts as a big boon! I can understand the inconvenience caused in the bus when we don't carry exact change! Either we need to leave the change with he conductor or we need to waste our time by going to the conductor while getting down to get the left change which he writes on the back of the ticket which he issues!We used to face this typical problem when we used to be the students! So I am not surprised if you are grabbing the change! Even now at this age I often grab some one rupee coins from friends and relatives if I find any thing interested in them as I am one rupee coin collector! I must really appreciate your generosity and your husband's luck that you are sparing the big notes even when you are getting an opportunity to grab them! LOL! Thanks for responding!

Hi Dear SomeCowgirl! I am happy to know that you are using the change to buy some thing, it is a good thing to do as by doing so we are helping the change to be kept in circulation. Though I try to do so, but I don't feel like carrying change while I am on shopping because I carry my money directly in the pocket without using any wallet, so this would make my pocket really heavy and that would made me very uncomfortable! Yes before we realise, the change collected by us some times turn out in a pretty good amount which can either be transferred to our bank account or it can even be used when we are on shopping or on vacation! Thanks for responding!

Hi Dear Mermaidivy! I am really happy to know that you are using the change thus collected for poker! Indeed its a good idea.to play poker card games with Granny and let her win some change! This must be keeping her happy, No? Yes at some stage when we collect a pretty good change we need to gt them changed to appropriate bills, so that the money will be put back into the circulation! Thanks for responding!

Hi Dear Shia! Many of us really don't pay any attention to these small coins and just keep them in wallets! In fact I never like to carry any wallet at all I keep the currency like that only in my pocket! Just for the reason that I start collecting all unnecessary things in the wallet to make it more heavier day by day and as you said coins also form a part of it! That is good idea that you are spending them to get something like Newspaper or light snacks. By doing so you are not only getting rid of your change from your wallet , but you are also helping the change to be in circulation, for which it has been manufactured by the Government!Thanks for responding!

Hi Dear Hardworkinggurl! It is same story with me too! I too don't like to carry those coins while going out for shopping but I will have to carry them back to home from the market and I keep that change some where here an there which is collected then by my wife to be transferred into the container! Yes this petty change can get accumulated into some good amount within few months with which we can settle some household bill! thanks for responding!

Hi Dear Cher! It is always better to use your change instead of collecting it some where in a container as you are helping the change to be in circulation. If you have a need to utilize your change then you should use it instead of collecting it! Thanks for responding!

Hi Dear Laydee! That is good thing if we can really use this change for some purpose to keep them in cycle for which they are in fact meant for! Using them for bus fare or anything similar is a practical thing to do! I appreciate your idea of giving away the change in the Charity through the Charity Box. This will,as you said, would come handy to the needed instead of lying some where, here and there in the house or simply lying in the purse! Thanks for rsponding!

Hi Dear SnuggleBunnies! I am pleased to know that you have got a coin purse to save the change and you use the change i settling the bills also! Yes during sale season if we have change that comes very handy to pay the correct amount! Yes saving small coins like pennies for Piggy banks of Kids is a great idea when they deserve some payment! Yes sometimes kids they do such naughty acts and we should simply ignore them after just explaining them that they have done a wrong thing by taking out the change from Piggy bank to waste it! Thanks for responding! PS: You have got a beautiful animated Avatar as depicted on your profile page , but it is not moving here on this page! Please get it rectified so that others can enjoy it!

Hi Dear Agrim! Yes, by doing so we never realize that we have accumulated some good amount at the end when we happen to count it! Yes Rs.600/- is a pretty good amount and you can really nice fun at KFC with that! Thanks for rsponding!

Hi Dear Jaiho! I know many people have separate for for keeping the coins so that the same can be used when needed along with currency notes when on a Shopping! yes, it is a good idea to collect the small coins in a container and subsequently using them at some stores as these people are always in need of change! There is no pint why should we throw cents! After all thy are the monetary units and they can't be wasted like that in any way! Thanks for responding!

Hi Dear NewGrass! This often happens with my wife. She always carry her hand bag and she put all the change in her bag and she becomes happy to discover that she has accumulated a lot of change when ever she happens to find out that! LOL ! Thanks for responding!
