Brass in Pocket
Aug. 16th, 2004 11:17 amIf you want a completely painless way to save up a little extra money, just toss all your pocket change each day into a bucket for a year or so.
Mine was overflowing and had been making a mess on the floor around it for a while now, so I decided it was time to get rolling. $130 later, I'd used up all my coin rollers, and I hadn't even gotten to the nickels and pennies yet.
That not only covers my overly expensive Cirque ticket, but also a gift purchase, with a bit left over. Funny to think about how that cash had been sitting there all along in its plastic beach bucket.
