Looking for a money box

Hi guys
Does anyone know where I can get some nice money boxes?
I've converted most of my family to the £2 coin savings and everytime I pop round, there are jam jars doubling as money boxes. Apart from being a bit of an eyesore, jam jars a bit too tempting to dip into:o
The only ones I've seen so far are in the new goods section of my local Cancer Research campaign charity shop. They have several, but most of them are ugly or twee :rolleyes: There's a postbox one that I quite like, but as I'm buying about 6/8 I want a nice range of boxes.
Any suggestions gratefully received:T :T

I saw giant piggy banks in Birthdays the other day, pink ones and blue ones. They were £12. I reckon if they were filled with £2 coins they would hold in excess of £500. They were pretty big.“Ordinary riches can be stolen, real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.” - Oscar Wilde0
