    Not looking to stir anything up about credit vs. debit cards, banks, credit unions, interest, compounded interest etc. I simply stated that setting aside a few cents per day has had the effect of helping me save about $400.00 per year and that in lean times it can be a way to save for a more costly kilt or related item.

    Respectfully,

    I actually do this. I got 2 big vases from the local salvation army. One for quarters. The other for 'the rest'. A few months ago, I rolled my quarters and did the Coinstar for the rest.

    End result after about a year: about $700 - which is paying for 2 Keltoi kilts - Tweed Kinguisse and an Ancient Maclean boxpleat...

    I wear cheap kilts and give all my change to the homeless.
