Collection: Piggy Bank

A piggy bank is a small, simple container designed to hold coins or small bills — ideal for collecting spare change or saving for small goals. It’s an easy way to start building a savings habit without needing a bank account.

Both. Piggy banks are great for teaching children about saving and the value of money, and are equally helpful for adults who want to collect spare change, save for short‑term goals, or keep small cash easily accessible at home.

Options may include classic ceramic pig‑shaped banks, modern designs with removable plugs or stoppers, transparent or decorative jars, and themed or novelty banks suited for different tastes or purposes.

Yes — even in a world of cards and online payments, a piggy bank remains handy for cash you receive (tips, small notes, gifts, pocket change), and it can help you maintain a physical savings habit.

It depends on how often you deposit, but even small daily or weekly contributions add up over time. What seems like spare change can add up to a meaningful amount when collected regularly.

Think about material (ceramic, plastic, glass), size/capacity, ease of retrieving coins (removable plug vs breakable bank), and design (classic, modern, decorative) based on how you plan to use it.

A bank with a removable bottom or plug offers convenience and the ability to reuse. At the same time, a breakable design encourages saving until a bigger goal — choose based on whether you want flexibility or disciplined saving.

Definitely, giving children a piggy bank encourages them to save regularly, understand the concept of accumulating value over time, and plan for small purchases or savings goals on their own.

Yes — you could use multiple piggy banks or label different ones (for example, “vacation”, “gifts”, “emergency fund”) to save for other purposes and keep money organised.

For small amounts and short‑term saving goals, yes — it’s a simple, no‑fee way to store cash. For long‑term savings or larger quantities, a proper savings account might still be more appropriate.

No — piggy banks simply store cash; they don’t generate interest like bank savings accounts. Their main benefit is helping you accumulate and save physical money over time.

Depending on the design, some piggy banks have a removable plug or stopper at the bottom for easy retrieval. In contrast, others — mainly traditional or decorative ones — may require breaking or dismantling.

Yes — even if you only deposit small amounts occasionally, over weeks or months, that money adds up. The habit of regularly saving makes piggy banks valuable regardless of deposit size.

Set a clear savings goal, make regular deposits (daily or weekly), avoid dipping into the money unless needed, and consider periodically transferring the saved amount to a bank or secure place for larger savings.
