So That's Where His Money Goes

The Tall One and I are both not so good at keeping track of where we spend our cash. Recently I was bugging TTO about this, because the money in his wallet was quite a bit lower than the amount that the computer said he should have. Where on earth could that money have gone?
A few days later, I was pulling some change from our change bowl to give to Bug for his allowance. I noticed an awful lot of quarters and decided to count the change in the bowl. There was nearly $10! This is where TTO empties his change each day, so things are starting to make sense. He doesn't keep any change in his wallet, it all goes into this bowl at some point, so twenty cents here and seventy cents there starts to add up after awhile and soon all of his cash is in that bowl in change form as opposed to being in dollar form in his wallet. I'll start rounding up when I enter any of his cash transactions and hopefully that will help the number on the computer match the number in his wallet.
