Saving for Pressed Pennies

[Silvarra]

The last trip we took to Disney World (Sept. 2019), I noticed a lot of the pressed penny machines were either just gone, or replaced by ones that ONLY took $1 bills. Is it even worth putting aside the quarters and pennies for the kids to do pressed pennies anymore?

So it had been 5 years since our last trip so for our recent Feb trip I bought pennies and a whole roll of quarters, didn't use any of them. I didn't find one machine that took the coins.

I haven't seen any of the machines lately.

Thanks everyone. I had some mini M&M's containers already put aside, but guess we can add that little bit back into our spending money. Only like $60, for 3 kids, but that is enough is for some other purchases. Also saves me the ink from printing stickers to put on each kids container, lol.
