This is my coin bank's contents. I used to have loose change lying around everywhere. I got myself a coin bank so I could deposit whatever coins I have in my pocket in it. They come in handy during emergencies. At one point, I filled a pot with five peso coins and it paid for my travel tax. I guess, That's What You Get (Paramore) for putting aside all that heavy nickel in your pocket. Somehow, though, I still end up with a lot of loose change lying around.
I keep telling myself I'd do this but somehow never got around to actually doing it. The coins invariably ended up paying for small trinkets and candies. Haha.
ReplyDeleteNice shot. That reminds me of the coin bank of my boyfriend. It's overflowing with coins & if he's not around his room, I steal some. Sayang kasi. Hehe! He puts them in an empty cup of instant noodles.
ReplyDeleteI was able to fill one long coin bank with P5 and P10. P3.5k din siya haha Pero di ko pa napapalitan, nanghihinayang ako eh haha
ReplyDelete@blackshirt13: Haha... Ako naman, nabigatan lang lagi kakabitbit ng coins. Tapos lagi na lang silang nakakalat sa apartment. Hanggang sa may madaanan akong store na may coin bank. Ayun na.
ReplyDelete@Reggie: Thanks, sis! :) I just gave up lugging them around.
@Dianne: Haha... Sakto yan, sis. Pang-travel tax din. :D
Sis I used to save coins too back in college, puro 5 and 10 lang and I only did that during November and December so I can save up for christmas gifts. Ang alikansiya ko lang is mineral bottle. I cut a small hole to slip the coins in. Ok na din, I could save around 1500 na din yata sa time na yan. That was the only way back then that I could buy gifts for my inaanaks. haha :p Yung bro ko ang magaling mag-ipon sa ganyan. Malaki yung mga alikansya nya and hindi nya talaga binubuksan before. pero ngayon wala na, magastos na siya :p
ReplyDelete@Joanne: Wow. Ako kasi, hindi ko talaga intensyon na mag-save. Gusto ko lang may malagyan ng coins na nakakalat kapag naglilinis ako o pag-uwi ko. Nagagamit ko din minsan, tip sa delivery o pamasahe o kung ano man. :D
ReplyDeleteWish I could do this, but I keep using my coins as fare.
ReplyDelete@Gwacie: My wallet has a coin purse, pero I still somehow put coins in my pockets, and when I get home I dump them in this pot. :)
ReplyDeletenice shot! kahit anong try ko nag magsave sa isang coin bank or whatever wala talaga... :D
ReplyDelete@Pink: It wasn't a conscious effort to save. More like, nakakalat kasi, kaya dapat itabi. :D
