#81. Save $500 in Change - Progress

This is one of my favorite goals because you never think about how quickly spare change can add up.

In my perfect world, we would continue to be able to take free vacations with change we've saved. Last year we were able to go to Emerald Lake for my birthday courtesy of the change jar. 

This year I want to go to Disneyland for my birthday in October so it's unlikely we will save enough to have an entirely free trip but every penny counts. 

Speaking of pennies, the banks are going to stop accepting them soon (they may have already) so I wanted to make sure I got our final roll to the bank before that happens. I cleared out the owl bank and started rolling.

I thankfully had just enough to fill a roll of pennies without one to spare. And I was also able to fill two rolls of quarters. Hey Big Saver.

Tomorrow I'll take this $20.50 to the bank for a total in the change account of $231.80.

Almost half way to the goal!
