How do you shop for the holidays? Do you strategically plan out and budget all of the gifts you are going to buy everyone? Do you spontaneously go shopping with no budget and hope everything doesn’t cost you an arm and a leg? Are you like me and scrounging up money and looking for ways to add to your holiday fund because you love buying gifts but the prices are just too high? I thought it was bad before I had kids but now that I am a mom the holidays are so much more fun and so much more expensive!
Coinstar® is here to help! If you are like me you have change lying all over the place! I have a piggy bank over flowing, my wallet weighs 100 pounds- well maybe that is an exaggeration but it is pretty heavy, and my dresser has all the change my husband pulls from his work pants every day. Go grab yourself a baggie and start loading up all that change to take to your nearest green Coinstar kiosk. I bet you would be shocked at how much that change adds up and gives you a little extra something for the holidays! You can find the green Coinstar kiosks and most of your major grocery stores. Did you know you can also turn that change into a no fee gift card for your special someone, or donate the coins to a charity as well? You can cross names off your Christmas list while you are turning in all that loose change.
Another great way Coinstar can help you this holiday season is by turning those unused gift cards into instant cash! That’s right! You can go and find the yellow Coinstar™ Exchange kiosks and turn those unused gift cards into extra cash for the holidays!
Coinstar exchange accepts over 150 different gift cards!
So if you need ideas on how to get a little extra money this season go check under your couch cushions, in your car, your wallet, and your dryer and head on out to your nearest Coinstar and turn in that change! If you are feeling giving this season you also have the option to donate some of that money to charity! Happy saving!
