If you are the sort who needs a little encouragement to start saving money, this just might be the rude shock you need. Japanese toymaker, TOMY, has come up with a new piggy-well, technically, it is a bomb - bank, that lights up, vibrates, makes loud noises, and essentially explodes and scatters the coins inside if you have been lax in your savings. You can set the bank to explode if it has not been fed daily, every three days, or at random. The TOMY Savings Bomb retails for 3,000 yen. I want to buy! Keep posting, Mickey

I love the idea of having to feed the piggy to stop it exploding but I can't help thinking some people would think it much more fun to watch it explode so would stop feeding it deliberately.

Hi mickeydavis! Wow, that is interesting and unique! You will really be forced to save or feed the piggy or else it will explode! I think if it will be available in our country, I will be buying a few for my nieces to teach them how to save in a fun way! Just my thoughts dear friend! Take care and have a nice day!
