Kind of!.!.!.in the early 70's everybody (well not everybody) had a canning jar in the teacher's closet that we could deposit into!. Like piggybanks!.!.!.there was a little slot cut in the cap and the caps were glued to the jar!. Like Celeste, those savings earned me nothing more than a few packages of Now & Laters* from the candy store across the street from school!. Www@Enter-QA@Com
You know what, we did that in the early 70's too! I remember thinking I was so bad *** with my little bank book!!
