About Big Belly Banks

Welcome to Big Belly Banks!!

When you buy from us you can be sure that you're getting an authentic Big Belly Bank. 

The inspiration for Big Belly Banks came from a goose that chased the inventor. It was trying to get a sandwich out of his hand.  The higher he raised the sandwich the more the goose stretched its neck trying to reach it.  He thought it was hilarious.  Later that day he sketched a cartoon looking goose with a long neck, took a pencil and drew a zig-zag line down it's neck. And thought it would be cool to make a bank that would "Eat" money!

The first bank was made for his daughter's birthday. As he watched and listened to the coins travel down the neck, it made him laugh and he thought that other people might like them too. From there, he made 500 Ducks and Dinosaurs and took them to a large craft show,  sold all 500 and took orders for 470 more!

Encouraged by the success at Craft Shows, multiple patents were obtained, and they went into business.  That was in 1993!
