I use my empty prescription bottles for organizing change. The smallest bottle I get is exactly right for holding $10 worth of quarters. I haven't taken the time to count change into other sizes, but when I do, I'll be marking the lid with a Black Sharpie pen.
This isn't a very good solution for those people who end up with lots of change, unless you have many bottles to fill. But I don't get that much change these days, since I use a Debit or Credit card for almost everything I buy. Hope this helps someone though.

LOL! My stepdad did this too. When he passed away, I helped sort out his things & we found pill bottles all over his room & in his dresser filled with change!
