In the past I never walked around with any change on me. Now I may keep 100 pesos or so in change on me as taxi drivers either don't or just say they don't so they can keep the change.
For the very reason that I don't like carrying around a bunch of coins, I usually leave whatever coins I have accumulated during the day for the maid. Especially at NG, I tip daily and if I haven't at least 30P, I'll leave a 50P note. For that, I've always received extra towels and whatever else I've requested. (Like making sure the room is immaculate before the novia shows up in the morning after a night with another chica) As well, a number of times either myself (one time my entire dop kit) or the novia (jewelry and clothes) left something behind and the maids kept it for me until the next time I was there. Unless you are a regular, it would seem the better practice to tip daily anywhere so as to maximize your benefit.
Ah but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now!
