Our dog was so thin we used it as a toastrack,we made some extra pin money when it passed away by selling him to the Gypsies to make clothes pegs from.

When I was a kid we were so poor, when my little brother broke his arm we had to take him out to the airport for x-rays.
We were so poor we'd lick stamps for dinner.
We were so poor my dad would eat Cheerios with a fork so he could pass the milk around the table.
We were so poor, we didn't even use the O and the R.
We were so poor that we couldn't afford fireworks; we sat in the kitchen watching popcorn pop with no lid on it.
We were so poor when I was young that we couldn't afford ornaments for our Christmas tree. We had to sit around and wait for Grandpa to sneeze
