– – We all know that some parents can be quite cheap, so when his kids asked him for a puppy, one big-spending father depicted finding that puppies can be really expensive got them a possum instead!  We see this guy in a Geico commercial working over his barbecue while his son and daughter stand over their “pet” possum, which is lying motionless at their feet; the son appears to prod the possum with his foot.  “Dad, I think he’s dead,” advises the daughter.  “Probably just playin’ possum,” reassures the father.

Sure enough, moments later the inert possum comes to life, rolls to his feet, and hisses at the two kids.  “There he is!,” declares the vindicated father, not even bothering to look up from his grill.  There’s an easier way to save money, of course…Geico Insurance!
