Piggy Bank
The Piggy Bank give you 20% of your Materials when you exit the shop and start a new wave.
For example, if you leave the shop with 100 materials, you will start the wave with 120.
Unlike the Materials gained by Harvesting, Piggy Bank doesn't give Experience. It only gives you the Currency Part of Materials.
While playing in Endless Mode, Piggy Bank stops functioning after wave 20.
