Thats right! The ATM is a machine that keeps
track of your money, just like the teller inside
the bank does. But bank tellers are only at the
bank, and ATM's can be anywhere. There's usually
an ATM at the bank, but they're at the mall and
the grocery store, too.

• Saving Tips
• Putting money in a savings account is a great way
  to make sure you have the money you need, when
  you need it. You put money in the bank now, and
  you can use it later.
• It makes sense to save money, putting some in the
  bank every week, month after month. Over the
  years, your money will grow and you'll feel good
  about saving. You can use a little of the money
  you've saved for special thingsmaybe to buy your
  mom or dad a birthday present, or a surprise for
  a friend.
• Collect your coins in a safe place like a piggy
  bank or jar, and when it gets full, put the coins
  in the plastic coin wrappers and deposit them
  into your savings account. You'll be surprised
  how fast those coins can add up!
• When you get money as a gift from family or
  friends, put it right into your savings account
  where it will get added to your other money.
  You'll be able to buy yourself something really
  special if you combine the money you've saved
  with any gift money you get.
• Always put the money you earn from chores around
  the house in your savings account. It's a great
  way to make sure your hard work helps you reach
  your savings goal.
