Empty the jar

We have this blue Mason jar that sits on a shelf in our tiny Polly Pocket home. At the end of the day we put all our loose coins in that jar. In today’s culture we don’t use much cash so the jar has stayed pretty much at the same level for years now. When the two younger kids were in school and living at home, we would sometimes give them a twenty-dollar bill to go eat after a football game or something and they were supposed to put the leftover cash or change in the jar. It seems like they always kept the change - at least it never made its way back into the family change jar. At the end of high school both of them had a nice savings account.
