I used cash for everything until I retired 23 years ago. Now I pay with a credit card, get 2% cash back and have only one e-check to send each month. I have no use for cash except when traveling when I need tip money ($ Ł €) that I keep on hand for quick trips.

I thought the same thing when they opened. I have to insert a quarter to even get a cart? Then return it to get my quarter back? PLUS - they don't pack your groceries, just throw them in a cart?? And at first, they didn't even take charge cards!

<advertisement>But after a while, it grows on you: No carts laying around the place to hit or get hit bay. When taking a cart back, often a person going in will stop you and hand you a quarter to save you the trip. VERY good prices (eggs at 43 cents a dozen when Kroger charges $1.20 and Walmart $1.10, milk for 99 cents when Costco is $2.99.) High quality products. Double back guarantee: get another same or similar item /plus/ your money back. Specialty items not available in other stores (German outfit, as mentioned above). We don't shop for everything there, because it's not as close, but anything they do have, it's better to buy there.</advertisement>

Pduck. Great first post. You have assured yourself a place in MBWorld history.

i use a small mesh bag from The Container Store, when it fills up I get an Amazon Gift Card from the Coinstar kiosk. No fee.

Kids today are missing out on one of the great utility devices of the 20th century!
Keeps your stash from drying out, too!

Thanks!
There is a little (relatively unknown) space at the front and top of the centre console inside the armrest you could use (difficult to see but easy to use).

Alternatively, there are insets you can buy specifically for the 213 that fit perfectly, allow any wires from USB etc to pass, have coin spaces and room for phone charging. (Picture attached). I have one and find it very useful.

Keep mine in my pocket, unless I'm at work, then it goes into either my F.O.D. pouch or the front most pocket on my backpack. After work, I move it from the pouch or pocket to my pants pocket, until I get into the house, where it goes into an OLD girl scouts coin bank, until it's full. Then I take it to the grocery store with a CoinStar machine.
