    You've been ripped off - Wilkinsons do those tins for 79p...
    There's 2 different sizes.

    Wilkinsons do the thin ones. Poundland do the fat ones.

    Could you not just stick a photo of Michael Jackson on it?

    If the overall effect was not exactly what you were after you could perhaps take it to work and surrepticiously swap it for your colleague's tin. If she is busy/short sighted/blonde she would never notice and there is the distinct advantage that she might have already put quite a few pennies in it.

    I just typed 'money tin' on google's Shopping page, there quite a few available, I am sure one of them would suit your personal taste!
