Back in college I know where it would have gone, and that is not savings.

You could put it in a long term CD and forget about it, but to be honest the few extra bucks you get may not be worth it. For something that small of money, I would put it towards gas or grocery money or take someone out for a night out.

The opposite is the type of person who runs out and spends every $ they get. For example, they run out and spend a tax refund as if it were "found money".

"Tuck a Benjamin" as Larry Winget says. "I like them, I like them a lot" I would just keep it in my wallet too.

I doubt that it would affect my spending at all. I'm not sure what that says about me.

I bought myself an early Christmas present - a sweet little inexpensive Gretsch guitar, for my Beloved. The best investment I could ever have made - honestly.
