Pennies in the bucket

"Pennies in the bucket" is an idiom used to suggest that the cost of something is trivial.

Imagine if you kept all your money in an actual bucket. You would not think twice about spending one of the pennies because you have all the hundos in there too.

The Bickler

Hugging the Bucket

Experiencing the most vile and wretched hangover whereby you are predisposed to spending hours in the bathroom clinging to the toilet heaving all but your internal organs out repeatedly into the bowl.
