I have around thousands of Dimes, cents, 5 cents and Quarters which I got back against my purchases. I am not sure what should I do with it. Would you tell me ?

Given the copper in pennies, there is talk of making them worth a nickle to turn in, and then doing away with the penny altogether.
Each year I take my chump change and do a drive by dumping to the coldest, most despondant Salvation Army worker I can find. The one who's cold, getting no donations...so you drive by and dump the change. It gets used well, and it just blows the worker's socks right off. It makes their season.
Or, you could be lazy, take it to a change counting machine, and give the company a cut to handle your change.

Save the pennies because copper is rare right now. Every penny will be worth 5 cents in the future.
Put the rest of the coins in a bank.
You can go to a Casino and play on slot machines too...
Little kids would be happy to have that kind of cash too!

Step one is to get coin roll papers from a bank or at an office supply store. No bank will accept coins in loose form. You have to roll them yourself Coinstar machines will do this but the fee is steep!
Then open a CD or savings account because you need to have a cash reserve for unexpected events!
