For lovers of cute stuff (and all things kawaii ala Japanese invention), here’s one thing you might want to own.

I know that coin banks might be something that’s more useful for little kids trying to save a little saving before they get their own bank account. But I’m sure some of you have experienced the need for a coin banks even as you grow older. Say, savings for that pair of shoes you’ve been wanting but can’t find a reason to swipe your card for it, or a wedding/honeymoon fund, or whatever it may be! This might be the perfect coin bank for you…

Itazura Coin Bank: Kawaii kitty "steals" your coin...

Place your coins on plate & kitty will appear from box and steals money...

Itazure coin bank is a super-cute automated kitty bank, where a little kitty hides inside a box and “steals” your coins from a fish plate. The kitty meows too! Adorable.

Thanks Melvin for suggesting this particular item. If any of you have a suggestion, please comment on Thou Shalt Not Covet’s Facebook page! :)

Oh how I love all things kawaii. So when I discovered these cute advertising campaigns, I just have to post it here! Mind you, you might have to know a little bit about Japanese anime to understand these witty yet adorable ads. What you need to know is the fact that Japanese animations usually consist girls (and boys) with big round eyes that cover about half – or more – of their face… So now that that’s out of the way, here are 2 ads for Acuvue Define contact lens in Thailand:

Witty advertising of contact lens with cute anime character as the ambassador!

The Acuvue ad is relevant to the anime-obsessed population in Thailand & Asia!

And if that’s not enough cuteness (and for those not familiar with that brand), Covergirl too has created a kawaii ad to promote their eye make up products. Adorable!

Covergirl shows us how kawaii anime girls get their cute adorable big eyes!

Smart ideas, don’t you think? Using pop culture to accentuate their product branding. Kawaii!

I’ve always regretted not growing up in a culture that celebrates Halloween. I mean, it’s spooky and all, but it’d still be fun to play dress-ups and have a friendly trick or treat session with the neighbourhood kids. Watching US influenced TV shows and movies, we all know what Halloween means for the kids. Costumes, carve-a-lantern, and candy!

Anyone who knows me would know that I’ve got a sweet tooth. That’s why I love these awesome edible Halloween gifts from Cherry Moon Farms. From cookies to chocolates, from lollies to other Halloween treats. And they’ve dressed these awesome snacks up in cute Halloween costumes too…

Mrs Fields cookies in a Jack-O-Lantern anyone?

Mrs Fields cookies in a pumpkin bag anyone?

Freshly dipped edibles that are both cute & yummy!

Cookies in all different creepy shapes with happy faces!

Huge Mrs Field cookies that'll scare the kids away!

Cute but creepy bags filled with Mrs Fields goodness

Many more delicious treats for everyone to enjoy. This is a US-based site, so for those living there, you can still get it before Halloween. Now, who’s up for all treats and no tricks? Yummmm…
