'''Moneybags''' are enemies in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Two appeared only in [[Snowman's Land]]. Moneybags are money purses with their zipper undone along with eyes and feet. At first, they take the form of a regular [[coin]], but when [[Mario]] gets near one, it transforms into a coin purse-shaped creature that hops around. Defeating them will earn the player five coins a piece. They are also featured the ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' remake and in [[Coincentration]], a [[mini-game]] in the same game.

Moneybags also made reappearances in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' in two levels. Here, in order to defeat the evasive Moneybag it's needed to hit with six [[Fireballs]], [[stomp]]ing over it six times or using a [[Mega Mushroom]] or a [[Koopa Shell]]. For the first two ways, it would give one coin for each hit, and a [[1-Up Mushroom]] upon the last, at which it would be defeated. They usually appear in areas with several [[pit]]s, making it harder to chase the creature by these means. The mini-game Coincentration also appears in this game, with more 3D-rendered graphics.
 
A creature similar to a Moneybag, a [[Starbag]], appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. Instead of Coins and 1-Up Mushrooms, it yields 20 [[Star Bit]]s instead.
