Okay, I still have a few places to hit - like my purse and the car. I'm not hitting those yet as I would get sidetracked cleaning those things completely out and I want to stay focused on the few tasks I've already given myself. So, I hit my room and grabbed the jar of coins I've had sitting on my windowsill since summer. I took a few months and paid cash for most everything. This jar is the result of the change from those months. Are you ready for the total?

$43.86!
My brain had already decided what to do with the money, so here it is. I am removing the 'gifts' category from my spending plan for 2012. I will start paying cash for certain things again and use the change to fund this category. I have another thing or two to help fund it, but that's for a different post :) This will be no small challenge as this category covers birthdays for my daughter, her husband, my son and my grandsons! Right now, it covers only birthdays (Christmas is a separate category in my spending plan), but still no small challenge!
Now I need a catchy name for my challenge so I can update along the way! Any suggestions?
