money jar

Coin collection vessel

A money jar is a container, typically glass, used to collect and save coins or cash.

Unlike piggy banks, money jars let you see your savings accumulate: She kept a money jar on her dresser for vacation funds.

The term sometimes describes any informal household savings system, whether or not an actual jar is involved.
