If only I could budget ...

This little box took some research on my part when I found it. At first, I thought, "Oh cool! What a great tackle box!" But I have a dad and uncles and grandfathers ... no one has a tackle box that looks like this. The patent number is on its bottom and after some searching and researching online, I learned that it is in fact a "budget box" - the top has spots for separating coins and bills and even little places for labels, as in "rent" or "groceries" or "Zappos."

The color and the fact that the little inside metal containers are removable, I've listed it on our shop, but it will be difficult to part with such a neat antique ...
