I don't think I'll hurt my reputation if I admitted that I still used a piggy bank, I mean, I'm sure there are more people than I even realize using this iconic childhood jar; and even if there aren't, I'm sure they will crop up after they see the COINK Piggy Bank.
Seems like many traditional, everyday items are being revamped, and that doesn't exclude quaint objects such as the COINK Piggy Bank. Designed by Scott Henderson, the piggy bank features a convenient funnel that makes dumping precious coins easier and faster.
