savings jar

Money collection vessel

A savings jar is a container, typically glass, used to accumulate coins or small bills over time.

Unlike a piggy bank, the transparent sides let you watch your money grow: She kept a savings jar on her dresser for vacation funds.

The term sometimes appears figuratively for any informal savings method.
