Keep the Change? Anything under a nickel I always say keep it. Anyone else?

No, but if I think of it, I'll throw the change into the penny collection a lot of places have.

No, we keep all our change. Being a newlywed couple with a baby on the way we need to save all the money we can. My husband and I have a big glass jar where we throw our leftover change in everyday. After a few months we roll it up, take it to the bank and deposit it in our account. You'd be surprised at how fast it adds up.

Yes. But sometimes I plant it in their food so they have a nice surprise a couple days later :)

No, I keep my change. I need all the change I can get...In March, I'll go and exchange the change for cash so I can use it for my trip to NYC.

No, I'm cheap, so I get all my change back no matter how small.

I usually keep my change.

But for the most part, I really don't carry a lot of cash with me so I either use my credit card or my debit card, usually my debit card.

No way. They get enough money out of me; I'm not letting them keep even a cent extra.

No, I keep it. Sometimes if its a penny or whatever Ill just walk away and say Im all set because I work as a cashier and I cant stand some people staring down at you waiting for you to dig out that penny. But I usually pay with my card anyways.

I take every penny I got coming back because I'm poor. Obviously it's mine because I payed enough for whatever I bought. Probably payed too much for it anyways.

I just feel it's nothing i can do with 3 pennies so I never stand there and wait for it. If it's a nickel, then yes I do stand there

If it is just pennies, I leave it. I have no use for pennies.

I keep it. I work hard for my pennies.

On the opposite end of this: One nasty male cashier (he was always a mean cuss, to customers and co-workers alike) actually EXPECTED me to allow him to not give me my change. Why? Because he didn't want to bother to open up a new roll of coins. Hmm... he would have to do that eventually, so why should I have to forfeit my money so that he could put off that particular chore for what?... a minute or two?

sheesh!

I usually keep it but I have no use for it. I put my other coins in a can and they add up after awhile. I just cashed in $200 worth of coins. :lol:

I've seen a few waiters/waitresses who have taken to assuming your change is automatically their tip. Um, no. Not unless I tell you to keep it. ohno:

If it's just a few pennies, I tell them to keep it. Who wants to walk around with a purse or pocket full of pennies, not me.

No, but if it is only a penny, I usually tell them to keep it.

:) When it comes to my change, I keep every penny! Like my grandmother, always used to say "Saved Pennies make Dollars" and they do. I also believe in tipping well.
