Money Saving Tip: Free Coin Counting at Coinstar

One of my favorite ways to save money throughout the year is saving all my coins.  I have a large decorative glass vase that works well for this.  As the end of the year approaches, it’s time to cash in my coins.  I use the collected money for Christmas presents.
