Economical Emergency Jars

Be Prepared to Pinch Your Pennies with the Financial Crisis Survival Kit

— August 21, 2012 — Art & Design
The Financial Crisis Survival Kit is a cheeky and comical way to save your rainy day funds. With the economy regaining momentum after the recent credit collapse, this simple, yet sweet piggy bank reminds one of the perils of mismanaging savings.

Whether it's a penny or a $20 bill, the kit lets you stash away your cash until it comes time to break open the bank. The tin can design prevents slippery hands and budget-busting savers from diving into their emergency funds too quickly. The pull-tab design is a cheeky, yet ingenious way to ensure money is being saved, not spent.

While the pint-sized can isn't roomy enough to hold your retirement funds, it can certainly stash enough dough for an occasional treat. The Financial Crisis Survival Kit is a straight-forward gadget for saving up your pennies.
