I empty pocket change into a two gallon jar at home and annually bring it to the bank before embarking on a vacation. It's essentially my travel-tequila fund.

I use quarters quite frequently.  Usually on the weekends on my way out to our farm I use them to buy ice for my coolers from a machine on the way out there.  I also on occasion will use one of those "pressure washer" type car washes if my truck gets too dirty or muddy driving on the dirt roads around Keystone Heights.

I do the same as you with the rest of my pocket change.  However, I opened up a savings account when my grandson was born and I put the money in there.  On average it's usually around $50 or so each time I deposit my pocket change and over the years (my grandson is 10) it has become quite a decent chunk of change for him when he gets older.
