What I'm doing with my change
Since I started late in retirement planning I'm taking my change and putting $25 a month in my pepsi stock. It has been doing good for several years. It's better than keeping it in the bank that earns only1/2 percent.

That is a very good idea. I just wish I had some change lol Hubby pays for everything with either a check or debit card so there never is any change.

Way to go!
I'm putting our change away for a 20th anniversary vacation which will be in 8 years
Hoping for a GOOD amount by then.
I cheat a bit though, whenever I pay a bill online I transfer any odd amount change wise from checking into our ING vacation fund, keeping the checking at an even dollar amount and it's really adding up!
I wanna go on a cruise!
