What do you do with your open rolls after going through them?

I recently bought a large quantity of original rolls and wondered what to do with the other extra coins that are not good enough to send into PCGS to have graded, but don't want to spend in circulation. Take for instance a roll of 1070-S Lincolns. I may find 1 or 2 to send in, but what do I do with the other 48-49 red pennies. Do I put them in a tube and just keep them, or do I spend them or what?

I would like to know what others do with their extras?

    I have drawers full of partial rolls. Can't just spend them but they sure use up a lot of space!

    Until a few years ago, almost everything was just pocket change if it wasn't gem. Even
    nice choice Ikes had no market. Today only a couple of the post 1964 nickels and several
    of the cents have no market. The 70-S is borderline. There are lots of great varieties in these
    to check for. I usually try to keep the 50 nicest and spend the rest.

    Turn them into the bank at their percentage. You already made a profit on the gradable coins...

    Just close your eyes, and stick 'em in the coinstar!
