Many of us will have had the wisdom of saving money instilled into us by our parents when we were kids. We were encouraged to put our money in little boxes where it seemed to stay for eternity. And we never seemed to know just how much cash was contained in the box.

See the greatest strength of the traditional money box was also it's greatest weakness. There was no way to tell just how many pennies you had saved without breaking the money box. And once opened, all those pennies disappeared pretty quick...

Fortunately we've found a nifty solution to the problem with the Heart Shaped Coin Counter. Because hidden inside the slot of this particular money box is a clever coin sorter which can identify the exact value of the coins being inserted. Better yet, it tells you exactly how much money is currently in the box (or heart) on the digital display mounted on the front.

Now we could be wrong, but we think this money box is aimed squarely at girls and young women, although for males who like pink hearts, the Heart Shaped Coin Counter will also be an ideal present.

So if you are saving for something special, the Heart Shaped Coin Counter can tell you how far you have come, and how far you have to before you reach your target, without breaking the box open and risking failure. There is also something very motivational about being able to see your savings mount up every time you make a deposit.

The Heart Shaped Coin Sorter is perfect for teaching youngsters the literal value of saving money. And if you play your cards right, you could even save them from credit card hell later in life. So the Heart Shaped Coin Sorter may be big, pink and heart shaped, but it might also be a life-changing educational tool. Or just a fun way to save some cash!
