I have a gigantic piggy bank its from the '70 every time I look at it freaks me out, it has a such weird malicious smile. Anyway it's full of half dollar coins.

No one invented the piggy bank. The piggy banks' origin owes more to the history of language, than to an individual inventor. Before, there was a type of orange clay called pygg. Around the 18th century, the word pygg sounded the same as pig. A person thought to shape a pygg jar, to look just like a real pig.

No, I keep my pennies in my grandfather's old candy jar. But piggy banks of the sort you have to break to open, have never been popular with me. Even as a kid, I'd always want to get the money out before there was enough to matter.

I just gave it to charity along with a box of other junk that just lies around. I always robbed it anyways whenever I was poor. I have even got GAS with change from my piggy bank before.lol.$$$

Yes. I have two Piggy Banks. One is plastic and one is ceramic. Both are filled with lots and lots of pennies.

Yes, I do. It really is a silver piggy bank that was given to my parents the day I was born, 42 years ago. It has my name and birthdate on it and it still looks great.

I have my little stash, but it's not a piggy-bank per se.
