Now You Can Be Happy Feeding The Parking Meter By godfrey884 on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
One day while my parents and I were out browsing the mall, my dad notice this Parking Meter Money bank and commented on how he thought it was cute. My dad never really asked for anything and never really expected anything.
But I have always been the type of person that if I knew my parents wanted something I would try very hard to get it for them, because as a child I know they tried very hard to make my sister and I happy and get us all they could even during the rough times.
So on my next trip to the mall, I purchased this for my Dad.
The Parking Meter Money bank stands about 55 inch's tall, it's made of Polyprolene. This is a replica of a street parking meter, the top part is where you insert the money like you would on a regular parking meter, you then can watch the money slide down the clear tube to the bottom of the meter. The clear tube allows you to see how much money you are collecting. To have access to your funds you just turn the Parking Meter to it's side remove the black base and you can remove as much or as little as you would like. My dad never did fill it to the top with money, but from the size of it I can say that it would hold a whole lot of savings.
This is a cute money bank for all ages. And could hold a lot of money for those whom have the ability to save and not have to dip into it every now and then.

Now this is one parking meter I would fill with a smile! What a fun way to save :))
What an excellent way to save your small change. A real winner as a novelty money box.
What a sweet thing for you to do to get it for him! I love this. It's so cute!
How cool! That's neat you remembered what your dad liked and got it for him!
My sister used to have one of these and it was cool filling it up with coins and watching as the coins got higher & higher in the bank. Great gift for any kid or for using to save up for something fun.
What a thoughtful daughter you are Godfrey! I love that you were intuitive enough to know your Dad wanted this little bank and bought it for him. It really is perfect for saving up all that loose change.
