My friends laugh at me because I am always saving and picking up loose change. I save it in a jar. You won't laugh when you realize how much change is left at TSA checkpoints.

According to USA Today, Americans have left more than $4 million dollars in loose change at TSA checkpoints since 2008. It adds up fast.

I get so frustrated when I am at a restaurant or some business and the cashier doesn't think that I want my change back. I even had a bartender ask me one time if I wanted my change. YES I DO! It is going in my jar and then cashed in for my 'fun fund'!

The lines are getting so long at TSA checkpoints that people are just in a hurry and don't care to gather up their change.

The long lines at the TSA are the worst they've ever been. And since airports are basically powerless to fix it, they're trying to help . . . by ENTERTAINING people stuck in line.

Like, at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport, they're having miniature horses walk around.  In Seattle and Atlanta, people are playing live music.  In Denver, they're handing out candy.  And in San Diego, they have CLOWNS performing. (NBC News)

Remember, to get your change when you go through the TSA checkpoint! And, would being entertained help distract you while waiting in line for the TSA?
