Default Where does all your change go?

I know this is dumb and trivial but a solution would make me and maybee someone else happy.So where do you guys put your change (as in loose coin) in the XB? I havent really found a good place in the car that doesnt rattle or fall on the floor. Due to the upright seating position all my change falls out of my pocket. so that doesn't work either. I read something once about the door over the fuse box being change holder related but it just seems like a weird cutout where something should go but doesn't. at least in my car it doesn't maybee the dealer jakt me (no surprise since they lied and jakt me anyways on other things).

so, as usual any help would be appreciated and no doubt enjoyed!

I normally put it in my back pocket, but then it somehow dissapears. Kinda like when I wear my thong. Funny, I dunno.

are you saying you have a back pocket on your thong? Or does you thong dissapear when you wear it? Or do you attempt to put change on your person when you wear thongs? All equally disturbing thoughts.

i used to put mine in the ashtray too..but then the annoying rattle bugged me....and yes i even put a nice padded foam in there to cushion the noise..but still it rattled..and it bugged me alot....

so i end up putting all the coins into my pocket...and then dump them into my coin bank at home...

i saved up more than $100 in coins in the last 3 months...i used the saved up money to take out my gf to nice dinner...haha...felt like using money that i never had...

There was this one guy couple of years ago..who saved up all his change in 5 gallon water bottles...over the years... the bottle grew to 8....

he bought a used car with it..the dealer was amazed when he brought in the money on his pick up truck... the total change on hand was $7000 in coins!

it was on news....that's some saving now.
