Piggy banks, once a staple of childhood saving, are making a comeback on platforms like TikTok, with creators showcasing their saving journeys. Notably, the viral video by @secretlyadri, which attracted millions of likes, highlights the importance of physical savings tools. Users express nostalgia and excitement about using piggy banks to manage money again. Experts, like Kristy Kim of TomoCredit, affirm the effectiveness of this trend, noting how creatively decorated piggy banks serve as both a saving mechanism and a source of fun. Many users have reported significant savings by using piggy banks once more.
"I can't save money to save my life," she said while putting crisp 20s inside. "There goes my weekly Starbucks, my boba, my cocos, a mini shopping spree, and everything else I wanted."
"I just bought [the same bank] because of you," one person wrote in her comments. "I need this," another said. "I keep taking my money out of my savings account and my money binder."
It's such an old-school way to save, but it also seems to work.
After filling it up 11 months, she opened her piggy and pulled out a whopping $700, which she promptly deposited into a high-yield savings account.
