    Cool!
    It's a bit like <<Homef***ing saves your money!>>, but I like it. ++ for you :-)

    Though English is not your native language, it makes your poem all the more impressive. I was struck that: It's short and to the point. It rhymes nicely. It has a good punch line / message. Especially the way you made the '&' of "&save('the money')" pronouncable as part of the poem. Nicely done!
