Gallon sun tea jar here. We cash it in the CoinStar machine about every 2 years when we make a Laughlin NV trip.

Unlike thai-vic, I pull off my pants to the jingle of loose change hitting
the floor. Most often, it just stays on the floor. When the urge to pick it up strikes, they are put into a bank with the Tootsie Roll logo on it. Then, when the can gets heavy I search through it, keep a few dollars worth in change purses and take the rest to the bank.
Often, there are enough quarters to pay for a small pizza.

Looks like this one:

My special coins go to my collection, those random coins I have go to my collection, practically all my coins go to my collection!

(actually, I put those random coins in my drawer of other random items).

A plastic water cooler jug painted with a textured paint does the job. Gets sorted through once a year, cashed in and used for vacation.

Since I roll hunt and have to dump 2-3 times a week I just throw the change I get in with the bags of coin going out on the next dump.

I placed my coins in a display galleryâ€"in a small room where my coins are organized and in years will appreciate. Aside from enjoying bitcoin mining, collecting coins is my first love. For me, my most sought-after coins simply give me joy and fulfillment to have them.

I stash loose change in the ash tray of my pickup truck when out and about. Otherwise it goes into a cigar box on my dresser at the end of the day. After a few months, I'll go through both of those places and pull out anything interesting for the collection. Anything that doesn't get pulled goes into a large plastic deposit bag for the next time I go to the bank (I roll search periodically and have a few such deposits a year).

I throw my loose change into my 1981 Planters Nut jar, 75th anniversary edition. I have been doing this since, well, 1981. I take to the bank every once in awhile.

I have an old thick heavy glass 5 gallon water jug. It won't fit halves but, doesn't matter as I don't get any in change. Only nickles, dimes, and quarters go into it and we usually cash it in once a year. When I was a server at a restaurant, it wasn't uncommon for us to fund entire vacations after a year of saving. I love me some change!
