I put my change in a jar when I empty my pockets. About once a year I’ll take it by the bank and treat myself with the couple hundred dollars it cashes out to.
I’ve got a jar too, but it definitely doesn’t fill up at anywhere near the rate yours does. My pay is direct deposited and every place I shop will take a card. I could either go to the ATM to get cash, use it to pay for things when I don’t have to, collect these small amounts of change, and take it all back to the bank eventually, or I could just not bother with any of these things.
I’ve had like ~70 cents sitting on the shelf for over a year… like, what an I going to do with it? It’s just a pointless pile of coins. half the time those coins are in the wrong combination to pay for whatever other change in my next cash transaction, so I just end up with more coins… which I have to remember to grab when I’m specifically going to a cash-only place…
All of the sub-$1 coins that I have ever received as change in my lifetime would not add up to $100. But I also don’t use (or even carry) cash unless I absolutely must.
Edit to add: I have a jar too. It’s a standard mason jar. I started filling this one after my last move. In 2013.

Are you just throwing yours away?

I have yet to fill it completely.
