This Little Piggy Went To Coink It

I’ve been COINKED. COINK me baby one more time. He’s always good for a COINK. Isn’t it amazing how a new look at an old perspective can change everything? Get it? Change? Here at Delight, we are always looking for ways to make our pennies last a bit longer. And, ironically, we’re always looking for fabulously fab and useful ways to spend those pennies. And therein lies the COINK. Designed by the hip kids over at Mint Inc., this white porcelain piggy bank is as cool to look at as it is to COINK. Instead of sliding one coin in a slim slot after another, the COINK welcomes the dumping of change into a big fat hole. Then, when you want that change back, just turn over the pig and dump it out again. It’s sort of like Piggy Bank 2.0. And we love it. Plus we really like saying COINK. Cuz’ if a funny word about a funny, dead-pan porcelain pig can get us to save our dough, then we say COINK it to us all night long. About Mint Inc.: MINT Inc is a design collective founded by Alberto Mantilla, Anthony Baxter and Scott Henderson. The company was formed simply to create an outlet for creative ideas that are generated by the three founding designers in the course of their professional careers when a client commission may not be present. The MINT name was chosen because "mint" connotes freshness as in the literal sense of the mint plant, but also because it has industrial meanings, as in the place or source of manufacture and invention. The deets: - COINK piggy bank by Mint Inc. - Materials: Porcelain. - Dimensions: 8" h x 6 1/2" dia. - Packaged in cute gift box. - Put coins in the back through the wide slot, and dump them out the same way. - The COINK is a great gift for kids, a fun graduation gift, a nifty Father’s Day gift, and a responsible treat for your self. - Gorgeous gift-wrapping available.

This is a great idea! I like this a lot better than the pug bank they featured a while ago.

I just received my piggy bank and have already had two of my friends ask how they can get one!
I was planning to put a mason jar by the door for all the loose change that ends up in the laundry but I am going to return it and use this piggy bank. It always puts a smile on my face when I walk in the door and see the lil piggy hungry for some coins!
Its a good size for about a month of change and so sleek it goes with everything! i love it!
