What would the holidays be without the ‘12 Days if Christmas?’ Well, I guess we could live without one more Christmas carol, but I’d have less material to parody. If you read my Ode to Debt then you know what I’m talking about. If you haven’t, well sit back and enjoy as I poke a little fun at the banking industry!

a checking account with an overdraft fee.

On the second day of Christmas my bank did give to me
two debit cards
and a checking account with an overdraft fee.

three piggy banks
two debit cards
and a checking account with an overdraft fee.

On the fourth day of Christmas my bank did give to me
four my-ste-ry fees

two debit cards
and a checking account with an overdraft fee.
