(54) Cash storage unit


(57) A cash storage unit 2 has a housing 4 and a lid 6. The housing 4 is sub-divided into two compartments. The upper compartment comprises an opening 18 which provides access to the lower cash receiving compartment 22. This opening 18 comprises a closure flap 30 which substantially closes the opening 18 between the two compartments when the lid 6 of the cash storage unit 2 is open and opens the opening 18 when the lid 6 of the cash storage unit 2 is closed, thus permitting monies stored in the first compartment to drop into the second compartment 22 upon closure of the lid 6.
