Earning a Pet

Kenny's been craving a pet of his own for a VERY long time. He's finally got Rick to agree to getting a parakeet (Budgie)... the only catch is - Ken must pay for all of it (bird, cage, food) himself. Ken doesn't have enough money right now, but is doing more chores to earn money. Recently he's been wiggling his loose tooth a little extra hoping the Tooth Fairy will help put more money in the pot. Last night Ken was successful (with Dad's help) in getting his tooth out. This morning he discovered the Tooth Fairy had left him $2 (a gold presidential coin & a bicentennial silver dollar). Then, when stashing the money away he found a baggie of money from his Easter eggs. He can't stand himself. He now has enough money for a parakeet and a cage.
