Pig E Bank teaches kids about saving… coins

pigebank.jpg

h, the piggy bank. Trusty teacher of fiscal responsibility for generations. It's been around so long, it's about time it gets a technological upgrade, don't you think? The Pig E Bank ups the motivation to save by counting your kid's horded allowance money, tallying up the total on a built-in LCD screen. It's a nice idea and all, but do you really think kids these days are just dealing with coins? How many nickels would it take to buy a $60 PS3 game or new iPod? A lot more than Junior will have the patience to save up, that's how many. What kids these days need is a piggy bank with a bill slot in it. Get with it, piggy bank consortium, or you'll die out like Lincoln Logs. The Pig E Bank is available now for $25.
