Me and my wife never spend our coins but instead put it inside our kid's piggy bank so basically, everything that we put inside that piggy bank are loose change.
After 6 months of putting coins it it, we finally opened it. We got around P6,870.
What's the lesson in this one? If you have the habit of saving, small amounts can turn out to be so big in the long run. Who would have thought that by putting P10, P5, and P1 a night, we could reach that amount in just 6 months?
Spend consciously and responsibly and develop the habit of saving. It's not that hard.
