The bargain pig

Every Christmas for the last few years, my extended family has decided not to exchange presents. Instead, we've each made a donation to charity. Mine has been to Care, in one of those dealies where you buy a pig or well or such.

My personalised Care catalogue came the other day and so did a similar but unsolicited one from Oxfam. I have just found myself looking through both of them, thinking, 'Ooh, their pigs are cheaper!'... which isn't really the spirit of the thing, is it?
