Money boxes?
My boyfriend wants money for Christmas so he can save up for an XBOX 360. Instead of tossing a card at him with money in it, I wanted to get him one of those trick money boxes where you tape all the money together in one long strand and the person pulls it out. Does anyone know what I am talking about? If so, where can I find one? Any suggestions on how to make one myself?

Your question is so adorable!
There are some good suggestions on how to give money as a gift here: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
Also, I read this:
Tissue Box - Tape dollar bills end to end and fold them in an accordion style. Put this in an empty tissue box, with a tissue taped to the last dollar. When the tissue is pulled out of the box, the strip of dollars will come out in a long string.
Is that what you're looking for?

I saw a book at Michaels about a bunch of ways to fold money . That was neat ! I also want to give some kids money for Christmas and I saw this Gizmo ( I can make for nothing ) it's just a box with a slot in it -- you tape the curency end to end and they pull it out like one long paper. I KNOW I can make something better . That's what I'm doing this year .
The only one I can remember is taping the $$ to a long piece of string. Make a slit in the top of a shoe box. Put the money & string in the box and leave a little string hanging out of the slit the recipient will have to pull & pull to get the "treasure."
I did this for a neighbor's child's birthday gift, but you could adapt it. I took a shoe box, but a slit in the lid. Taped $1 bills together, included some of the Sunday comic strips, some wrapping paper strips, etc. and taped the beginning to the outside of the shoe box (it was wrapped appropriately). So when Nick started pulling the strip, he kept pulling and pulling and finally came to the good stuff, the money.

Money Box - Get a small rectangular Kleenex box. Remove all the tissues. Buy some play money and glue it to the outside, covering it completely. Get as many dollar bills as you want (I like to use a lot of smaller bills versus a few big ones). Tape all the bills together, end to end, using a small piece of tape. At this point, you made need to enlarge the hole on the top of the box. Roll the bills up and stick them inside the box, pulling the first one out of the top. This is my dad's favorite! The look on his face as he kept pulling bills out of the box was priceless.
