These brightly-colored cubic alarm clocks double as piggy banks, but that's not all. It doesn't have an OFF switch or a SNOOZE button. This thing forces you to save money every single morning by not shutting off its ring until you feed it some coins. Annoying, right? But that way you're guaranteed to at least put a little bit of cash towards your slush fund every day.
