Coinstar

Those green machines are pretty cool to count all your money for you- but if you cash it out, you lose almost 10% of the money which goes toward fees.

But there is another option that got me excited- if you opt for a gift card, you get 100% of the money and they don't expire!  There are different options, I had considered Amazon, but they are on my black list right now because of refusing to remove a book about "how to be a pedophile", but then I noticed Lowe's was an option- and since we are saving to also build a house, I can transfer the money from the House account to match the gift card we will eventually use!

If we had an Albertson's I might consider that as well and just use the grocery budget money to move toward the trip.
