BillieB Posted May 25, 2014 #1 Share Posted May 25, 2014 I collect pig money boxes, I have one from the QM2 and one from the QV. When we sailed on QE in 2011 she didn't have any, does anyone know whether she has started selling them yet please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmybean Posted May 25, 2014 #2 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Intriguing item--something I've never heard of it. Could you describe it more fully or post a photo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillieB Posted May 25, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted May 25, 2014 They are small pottery piggy banks. On the side is the name of the ship. I've got one from Balmoral, Oceana and the 2 from Cunard. I bought them from the merchandise shops on board. I thought it unusual that 2 cunard ships sold them and one didn't, as I believe from other passengers we met they are very popular.

Lanky Lad Posted May 25, 2014 #4 Share Posted May 25, 2014 We have ones from QE2 QM2 and QV but have not seen them on QE. I think they might have stopped doing them as I did not see any when I was on QV last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite disappointed really.Hi BillieB, Sorry to say that I didn't see any on sale on board QM2 a couple of weeks ago, and I'm sure I spotted them previously :( . Good luck with tracking them down.

Host Hattie Posted May 25, 2014 #7 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Have you tried eBay ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarafinadh Posted May 25, 2014 #8 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Ahh.. translation; Money Box = Piggy Bank ; -) Learn something new every day. Clearly they appear on ebay; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PIGGY-BANK-QE2-Queen-Elizabeth-2-Cunard-Memorabilia-Very-Rare-Collectable-/121189056354 You can set up on ebay to get an email when a saved search for a particular item is triggered so you don't have to check every day.
