So here I am, at home, in this small little town of about 1500 people.. It's 35*C outside, my girlfriend is at school and won't be home until later.. And I am bored!

I have nothing to do! Or did I? I cleaned the entire house today, did laundry, and the dishes as well. I strung my laundry outside to dry because it's a beautiful day out.

I get tips at my work from people who leave their $0.01 change behind. Pennies add up you know? Here's proof!

i have this little cup where I put my tips in every day after work. I've been there just shy of 6 months. From the remains of my tip-cup are pennies, dimes, and nickels. I rolled all of it myself and came out with almost $8! lol

Check it out! 5 rolls of pennies with $0.50 in each, a roll of dimes holding $5 together, $0.70 in nickels, $1.25 in quarters, and I even had a few pennies left over afterwards...

I usually round up a bunch of change from outside in my car and from the change bucket on my desk..I usually get about 10 dollars out of it every couple of months.

I'm too lazy and use coinstar. Even though they take out a percentage, I still get like 40+ every few months or so.

If you can manage to find a Commerce Bank, I think most of them do FREE coin counting. It's like a coinstar, but they take no money, and you don't even need an account:$

Wow! Rolling pennies. I haven't been that bored in quite some time. I'd suggest buying a house and getting married. The order of those events really doesn't matter as long as you do both. From that moment forward you will never have time to be bored again. There will ALWAYS be a list of things for you to do. :)
