This little piggy stayed at home

One of the main banks here, BNZ, has really cute pigs in its advertisements. Really, they're possibly the cutest thing I've ever seen. Check it out:

Skry went down to our local branch and got a piggy bank for me as part of my birthday present! I am delighted. His name is Hamish and he will eat all my spare change, then vomit it out when he's full.

    You make Hamish sound so attractive, vomiting out money!

    I wonder if, by the endof the year, you will have made him little piggy clothes and all that kind of stuff...?

    The banks are not so much concerned about the pigs sinking methinks,as not wanting to handle laundered money!
