Not so much a money saver, but something a frugaller out there might have come across, or know somebody who has.

Looking at opening bank accounts for the children. Somewhere where they can stick their pocket money (assuming they clean enough chimneys ).

He's 6, she's 3.

I know interest is going to be negligible so really looking for a kid specialised account that encourages saving with fun things e.g. free piggy banks or whatever. Need instant access incase they have any spontaneous purchase requirements.

I know when I was young the banks were competing with all kinds of freebies.

Any advice appreciated cos It's been a while since I had mine.
