每次買完嘢找咗錢之後, 你會隨手將啲碎銀擺埋一邊, 定係跟手就用咗去呢?? 我係屬於後者, 所以有時去超市買嘢, 我會自己先計下條數, 將手上啲碎銀儘量清晒, 不留半點眷顧.. 發覺身邊都有幾位朋友習慣將啲碎銀儲起嘅, 係等到最後關頭先會拎啲嚟用.. 其實我覺得咁樣都唔錯喎, 以備不時之需吖嘛(例如付款機淨係收銀幣), 唔知大家有冇呢個習慣呢??
after you get your loose change from shopping, do you normally put them aside, or you'll follow up using the coins available?? i belong to the latter type, that explains why i sometimes do my quiet sum-up before paying when i go shopping, so that i can clear off my coins in the exact amount.. i also noticed few friends who used to keep the coins somewhere, and will not use them unless really needed to.. i kind of think this is not a bad idea, save your coins for some unforeseen situations (for instance, pay machine only accepts coins), do you have this habit??

  8. Nope...I would want to get rid of them at the earliest opportunity. Used to keep in a piggy bank...but a whole lot, the total still not that much. Had to count half dead, didn't think it was worth the effort.

  12. Like what Justin said, I once saw in a shop or was it in a pub, a huge (really huge) glass bottle half filled with coins and I thought it looked so delightful!

    Me? I use my loose change. I figure it's less of a hassle trying to get rid of the collection later on.

  13. Almost got stuck in a parking lot some years back as they merely accept RM1.00 coin on exit and I was having problem with the coins as it flows out conveniently but got it done after a few tries. Some drivers got stuck at the toll without the RM1 coin..imagine the ordeal towards the middle of the night where to exchange for RM1.00 coin and the jams at the toll. What a silly system. Cant remember which shopping complex.

  14. Coins are important to me, must have them in the car for meter parking purposes. Love to keep 50sen coins in my piggy and its almost filled up now. Have been collecting 5sen coins since 70s but not many in circulation. Like the idea of HappySurfer put them in bottles, flower vase or even my empty fish tank.

  31. 碎銀随身携带好麻烦架,仲成日整坏我嘅荷包,通常我都会同你一样將手上啲碎銀儘量清晒!要收都係逐张红生鱼咁收啦,费事等你扑烂个猪仔钱罂逐粒都有排你计囉!嘻嘻嘻~~~

    ReplyDelete

  35. @ lina:
    haha, i think touch and go is very convenient, you don't even need coins at all.. yeah, very good philosophy of you, money is meant to be used!! i like that, hahaha :D

    @ khengsiong:
    係啊, 餐廳找錢我通常都會拎晒架, 因為係唔係都格硬收服務費, 我實唔畀貼士囉.. 啱啊, 碎銀畀泊車費真係好好用..

    ReplyDelete
  36. @ wenn:
    haha, because you always give changes to customers who never bother to bring exact small change??

    @ justin net:
    haha, so meaning you actually keep all your coins inside clear bottles??

    ReplyDelete
  37. @ uLi.佑莉:
    haha!! very good lor, your hubby keep the coins for you to use~~ :p

    @ suituapui:
    haha, i also always try to get rid of them earliest possible.. too troublesome to carry them home lah.. hahaha, maybe you count before putting into the piggy bank everytime, then just add up the total will do.. :)

    ReplyDelete
  38. @ Shell (貝殼):
    女士們通常都有硬幣包的, 隨手一放然後隨手一丟就在手提包裡面, 很方便.. 男生就不能了..

    @ Small Kucing:
    yeah, keep them inside the car for parking and toll..

    ReplyDelete
  39. @ kyh:
    but cannot always carry so much coins.. if you are taking public transport i think better own a touch and go, more convenient right??

    @ Danny:
    so what do you do with all those coins in the flower pots?? just for decoration??

    ReplyDelete
  40. @ HappySurfer:
    yeah, so that huge glass bottle is actually to collect tips and loose change from customers?? hmmm, i also try to get rid of my coins on hand too, too troublesome to carry them with me..

    @ Bananazஇ:
    oh yeah, definitely a hassle that you can only pay by coins.. but i guess nowadays the parking payment machines in shopping malls are already accepting notes, and changes in notes too.. i hate those that give change in coins, that is really not good!! i think a lot of people will keep coins inside their car, absolutely useful for parkings.. hmmm, you are collecing 5 sen coins for 30 years?? wow, keep on saving, who knows 50 years later they might be very valuable..

    ReplyDelete
  41. @ bluedreamer27:
    hahaha, so your nickname is coin?? that's a good one, can mean you are a rich person, haha!! oh yeah, i agree with you, i'd rather spend the coins than to keep them.. i have not really got a piggy bank too, i guess the last one i had was when i was 7.. that's it and i never save the coins since then..

    @ iamthewitch:
    hahaha, exactly!! ladies have purse big enough to keep all the coins, and you can just dump into your handbag.. but for guys, we normally put them in pockets, if there are a lot, it would really be very inconvenient..

    ReplyDelete
  42. @ Caroline Ng May Ling:
    but i think most ladies will have a coin purse big enough to put a lot of coins, and then they just dump it into their handbag, so shouldn't be a problem right?? but for guys, this is really a problem..

    @ Medie007:
    so who contributes the most?? that's quite a good figure yeah, saving about RM1 a day..

    ReplyDelete
  43. @ reanaclaire:
    yeah, that is what i meant by keeping for unforeseen situations.. wow, keep in car also got stolen, there must be people eyeing on you..

    @ mNhL:
    hahaha, maybe you can try to get those piggy bank that allow them take out the coins, and then refilling in them again.. so that you can have more peaceful time, haha!!

    ReplyDelete
  44. @ TZ:
    train and bus can use touch and go lah, more convenient because you don't need to prepare and carry them mah.. haha, so 50 sen a day for the october fest?? cool..

    @ Gabriel:
    hahaha, how much is your too much?? maybe you can consider putting them into your bank account?? but good also to slowly use them up, you'd find that your notes actually stays longer in your wallet~~ :p

    ReplyDelete
  45. @ Mei Teng:
    oh yeah, exactly!! one thing i find coins most useful is when you need to pay for your parking..

    @ Shingo T:

  46. @ edward:
    你啲碎銀放荷包架?? 我唔係啊, 我放褲袋架, 所以一多就好麻煩囉, 好重架嘛, 行起路仲會有聲, 幾咁尷尬.. 都不失為個好提議喎, 一日幫自己儲蓄十蚊, 一個月就有三百大元喎..

    @ 海市蜃樓:

  47. @ cindy:
    哈哈, 連抽屜也被壓壞, 肯定有很多在裡面囉, 有沒有數數看到底有多少錢?? :p

    @ Casendra:
    哈哈, 這樣也不錯喇, 就是說你會儲蓄到一個數目然後一次過用光??

    ReplyDelete
  48. 我会直接放在钱包里,需要的时候就马上拿出来用的...所以sikit sikit,lama-lama jadi bukit...不是我的作风...

    ReplyDelete
  53. 我会收5分钱因为公司会用到,如果要在外换会很麻烦。而且在银行用纸币换硬币是要付服务费的,但我不知道是收多少。

    ReplyDelete
  54. here in the Philippines coins are really important especially if you commute. :)

    ReplyDelete
  55. 我的钱包比较大个,可以放银钱的,
    所以可以常用。
    通常男生的钱包都比较小,
    没有放银钱的地方,所以他们都把银钱放在一边了。大少爷就是这样。
    因此我时常会拿他那罐银钱来用,
    很好用呢!又让我省到了!嘻嘻!

    所以錢包給我裝零錢裝到窗洞了

    ReplyDelete
  60. 我会尽量清掉它们,因为荷包负荷不了那么多银角咯。

    ReplyDelete
  61. @ bluecloud:
    呵呵, 我也是, 那些銀幣肯定不會在我的口袋超過兩天的.. 我每次買東西都會儘量把他們用完的, 銀幣也是錢嘛, 所以可以用呀~~

    @ stevevhan:
    yeah, of course!! especially in here, the coins are very important for paying parking.. because some machines only accepts coins..

    ReplyDelete
  64. @ Ashley:
    所以說囉, 你們女生比較方便呀, 把銀幣全部拋進錢包或手提袋就可以了.. 我們男生都是丟進口袋的, 太多的話很麻煩.. 一就是儘快用完, 一就是把他們放一邊懶惰帶出去..

    ericleeh:
    actually i think it's a good idea to save you coins for the purpose of paying parking.. because many machines sometimes only accepts coins..

    ReplyDelete
  65. @ L²:
    toll can use touch and go mah, more convenient.. but save those coins for parking lah.. :)

    @ Bengbeng:
    oh, really have no idea how valuable those coins are in east malaysia.. but still i think coins are money also, can't treat them as something useless right?? that's why i use every value of them, haha!! :D

    ReplyDelete
  66. @ venus:
    對對對, 我個人覺得其實那些銀幣最好用在給parking的了, 滿方便的, 尤其一些machine只收coins的話, 果然是恰到好處!!

    imyuyu:
    女生還好吧?? 通常都會有個銀幣包包, 然後放進自己的手提袋裡面, 不會不方便吧?? :)

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  68. 也因为这样,女生被抢手袋的机会高过男生多多倍!
    如果女装有一样男装的口袋就好,
    我也不拿手袋了。

    ReplyDelete
  69. I don't like to carry coins! In fact, I don't carry coins!

    ReplyDelete
  71. I don't even have a wallet to put coins! So everytime I receive coins, I will put in my pocket and then my pants become so heavy! Grrr!

    ReplyDelete

    @ Ashley:
    你們女生也可以穿男裝褲子嘛, 呵呵!! 不過你們拿手提袋的, 真的是要很小心囉..

    ReplyDelete
  75. @ foongpc:
    ok ok, so you never bother to even look at how much coins you have.. just pay by notes and dump in all the small change into your pocket, and then keep them all inside your car.. actually i think it's good idea, because most of the time, coins are really useful for parking payment.. :)

    @ Ayie:
    i would say save it for convenience in time.. especially when paying parking machine.. :)
