Life Bank One yen counter
20th June, 2007 by stuart
I’m pretty sure every single person has a designated place for his or her mountains of change. It’s easy enough to chuck in your pennies when you get home, but the hassle comes when it’s time to count them, plus you can only guess at what your savings are as you go along. Fortunately, the Life Bank One bottle top is here! Screw it on to the top of any bottle and watch the counter increase as you save. Sadly, it only counts 1 yen coins. Looking at it I actually doubt that. I’m sure it just counts the number of coins, so larger denominations might be possible. Getting one for someone’s birthday present will cost you 999 yen (£4/$8), but I’m sure it would make them very happy.
