Help needed in locating a cash tin

I had a savings tin a while ago but gave it to charity and cannot find another one hoping someone here can help

Description:- The outer of the money box was tin with 5 or 6 slots on the top for money to go through - inside was a plastic tray that also had 5 or 6 compartments basically so you could save up for different things ie insurance etc at one end of the plastic drawer there was a key that locked it into the surrounding tin bit

thanks in advance for any help

  • I used to have one of those - I got mine from studio but have no idea if they still make them or not - I used to give my mum the key so I couldnt spend what I was saving lol - they were really useful (off now to think where on earth did mine go and does it still have money in it lol)
  • hi appleblossom - I got mine from Studio too - it was blue - cannot for the life of me find another one like it - the one on ebays is ok but not exactly what I wa after.

    Will try searching again

  • Hi, I know exactly what you're looking for, my mum used to have one, but I've searched google etc and all I can find is this one with a lamp but it's £48.
    At least the picture may help someone else find it...

    Got my kleeneze book today and they are in there for £6 - not online though but I am sure you will know someone who does kleeneze. (these are the blue ones the same as you are looking for)
  • Hi Appleblossom
    Sorry never heared of kleeneze do they have a website?

    vickster*arsenal - that is exactly the box I am after - cannot believe they want to charge £ 46 for a lamp and the box thats horrendous!!
    Thanks for the picture though xxx

    hiya, they do have a website although you cant purchase from them - its a bit like betterware where someone comes round with a catalogue. If you complete this form, they will contact a distributer and get a book to you:
    http://www.kleeneze.co.uk/contact-us/contact-us-1.php. Goods normally take about a week from when you order to when you get it and you pay on receipt of the goods.

    That's a trip down memory lane! my mum used one when we were small, back in the 'cash only' days of housekeeping. I bought one in the 1990s for the same reason - it went to the carboot sale :o
