Here's a little trick we've been using for the past year or so.

Every day when we get home anything smaller than a 10 dollar bill is pulled out of the wallet or purse and put into an envelope in our safe.

Trust me, you'll never miss it. And in fairly short order you'll have a sizeable pile of small currency.

In 6 months we had almost a grand in there. We were stunned.

That’s a great idea. I heard Neal Boortz mention that saving strategy. It’s good on many levels.

Pretty good trick....

I will start that.......

I've saved $$ since I was 15 yrs old....

My pop taught me....

Had $6k in the bank...when I was almost 19. Bought my first car...with $4k of it...

Kept saving at least $50 a month for years....Then started figuring out ways to leverage that, and now have a real good amount.

I've taught my kids to do the same....My youngest...who's just 21...has over $10k in the bank! Whoa!! Surprised me...!! She's a smart young lady.

But I worry about her future!
