7 Piggy Banks That Will Have You Saving Money in Style …

As a child, I had fond memories of stashing away coins in my piggy bank. As I grew up and gained a bank account, piggy banks took a back seat. However, I’ve recently rekindled my love of piggy banks and listed a few that you should check out. If you’re going to save money, why not save it in style, right?


1. Trumpette Rhinestone Piggy Bank

Trumpette Rhinestone Piggy Bank


Price: $126.00 at barneys.com
This piggy bank is definitely one for the grown ups. This ceramic piggy bank is handmade and is covered in rhinestones. I love this flashy design. Fill it up with coins, and maybe you’ll save enough to buy another one!

2. Buddha Peace Bank

Buddha Peace Bank


Price: $10.00 at urbanoutfitters.com
I love the quirky design of this bank. The design depicts a cheery, peace-sign throwing Buddha. It’s made from resin and features a coin slot at the back. Once full, try donating your money to a charitable cause and get some good karma in return!

3. Right on the Bunny Bank

Right on the Bunny Bank


Price: $34.99 at modcloth.com
This bunny bank is as much decorative as it is practical. The rabbit-shaped ceramic design features a grey rabbit illustration screened onto the side. The coin slot can be located on the back, and a plug is situated underneath for the easy removal of hard-earned coin. This bunny bank will make it easy to hop into saving.

4. Call Me a Dreamer Bank

Call Me a Dreamer Bank


Price: $11.99 at modcloth.com
Dream big. That’s what this money box is all about. The “I’m saving up for a unicorn” quote is what initially got my attention. The rest of the text on the tin is hilarious! Make the impossible possible with this money box.

5. Owl Bank

Owl Bank


Price: $8.00 at urbanoutfitters.com
Owls are wise creatures, so who better to be looking after all your savings? This round, owl-shaped ceramic bank comes in a vibrant orange colour. It’s the perfect size for all your small change. With a locking stopper situated on the base, there’s no need to smash this one open.

6. Alex Marshal Bunny Character Bank

Alex Marshal Bunny Character Bank


Price: $82.00 at barneys.com
This cutesy bunny-shaped bank is sure to win you over. It’s made from earthenware clay ceramic and features a dusky pink and white colour combination. I love the simple line drawing of the design. This bunny bank is perfect for the young at heart.

7. Juliska Character Piggy

Juliska Character Piggy


Price: $48.00 at barneys.com
This piggy bank is one for those with a conscience. All profits from this item will be donated to the Save the Children charitable foundation. How sweet is that? I also love the traditional and simple design of this piggy bank. It’s almost a lifelike resemblance of a little piglet!
