One of the best parts of having children is that you get to revisit your own childhood and buy toys that you either loved yourself or wished that you owned as a nipper. The Cadbury chocolate money box was one of the toys that I was desperate to own as a child, my best friend Paul had one and he used to let me put a two pence piece in the slot occasionally to release a mini chocolate, at other times he would be mean and not let me have one! I used to dream of having one of those magic money boxes of my very own but maybe I was a bad girl and that is why Santa never brought me one. The Cadbury chocolate box has changed since I was a kid and is no longer the ...  Read the complete review

When Father Christmas got my son one of these one Christmas he was delighted (yes it's that credit stealing man again) as he'd had his eye on one for ages. Having just looked on Amazon for the current price I'm surprised to see that they're made by Air Fix (Father Christmas must have just grabbed it without looking) so would therefore expect good quality, which it is- although doesn't seem as 'sturdy' as the one I had when I was little. The cost at the time of writing is an average of £10 including postage on Amazon, that's how much I paid for it a few years ago.
