I save up coppers, and silver/pound coins in seperate jars, just counted my silver/pound jar out of curiosity and there was £241 in it (not including the 5p's there was too much of those and I couldnt be bothered counting them)

Not bad for a few months :idc:

Yep - I've got loads of little bags of money here there and everywhere - every now and again I fire them all into a bank bank and fire them into the cash trash machines in supermarkets - for real paper money!

I keep silvers in my pocket/on the bedside table, but I get rid of coppers.

Not policemen, that is.

I was not allowed money for awhile due to the fact my parents have had financial problems but it has been sorted now, I was given £20 so im saving up for Namco Station, I actually don't know how expensive Arcade/Bowling places are though.

I put change in a jar, but I usually use it for busfares and the like, so there's never usually much in it.

10ps & 20ps I keep.

I throw the 1ps and 2ps in charity jars... every little helps and all that. xo

I started the £2 coin saving thing at the start of this year. Got nearly £100 now. I used to hardly ever get them in my change, and since I started keeping them, I seem to get them all the time. :)

I normally chuck change into my bad then it disappears forever

My mum saves coppers. She used to exchange it for pounds/notes at this machine in my local Asda but I don't think they do it anymore

Those machines are a rip-off... they take a percentage of your money.

I prefer to change it at my local shop. The smaller shops are always glad to get a bunch of small change. :)

Always give me spare change to people in my family, can't be bothered with it

I have this penguin thing so I just shove all my change in there and count it periodically.

I'm currently in the process of melting all of my coppers down to make a sword.

I keep change in a moving saving box thing but I always end up spending. If I want to try and save I'll just try to leave money in my bank account. My dad saved spare change for a year and got 560 euro out of it which is quite good.
