Pressed Penny containers

[ajwolfe]

Curious what creative ways people have come up with to carry around their pressed pennies and change at WDW. Last time I did the tic tac and mini m&m tubes. I'm having a hard time finding mini m&ms this time and I thought the tic tac containers were kind of a pain last time - hard to get open wide enough to put the pressed penny in.

Other thoughts??

Thanks!!

Walmart has mini M&M tubes in the Valentine's candy aisle! Just picked a handful up the other night.

I found getting the coins in and out of any solid container to be a nuisance. I use a small zippered pouch.

We ended up using a small pouch as well. It was just too cumbersome to try to get the coins in and out of the M&M container. Our containers also didn't stay closed very well, so several times we were digging coins out of the bottom of our bag.

I buy the folders at the parks to slide the pressed pennies into. Then, each of my kids has one for each trip.

I use the mini M&M containers. You can get them at WalMart, usually in the regular candy section by the check out lane and in the seasonal candy too. I use some packing tape at the top to seal them better and the tape will keep sealing if you use packing and/or duck tape.

I finally found the mini m&m containers in the Valentine's day candy aisle, so I will use those for the coins again. I think I'll try an altoids box for the finished pressed pennies and see how that works....

I just use a little Laura Ashley coin purse I found at a thrift store. It's small, flat and fits into the pocket of my shorts.
