Let's Hear it for the Pig with These Personal Checks

By Alan Plastin


Do you dig pigs? The little piggy might have gone to the market, but now he can make a stop on your personal checks before he goes "wee wee wee" all the way home! With pig themed bank checks, you'll be able to carry entertaining designs that are familiar and you can pay homage to your preferred barn yard pal!

The pig, a subspecies of the wild boar, is one of the most popular domesticated animals. And you don't have to have a farm to keep one, although they do love their large spaces. Most likely, it was domesticated in the Tigris River basin around 13,000 BC.

For the most part, pigs are utilized for their meat. Pork is popular throughout the world, though some religions have firm rules regarding the eating of it. Still, pig hair, hide, and bones can also be used as well.

There are even those who keep pigs as pets. It might sound odd, but pigs have very happy and easygoing temperaments and their sparse hair make them great for those who suffer from allergies. In spite of their dirty reputations, they're also pretty clean-ignoring their occasional romps in the mud pits!

Over the years, the pig has shown up throughout literature in popular children's stories. "The Three Little Pigs" is perhaps one of the most famous stories of all time, with "Charlotte's Web", about a shy pig that gets a little help from a feisty spider, is close behind.

If you are crazy about pigs then you'll be glad to learn that there are quite a lot of different Pig checks to pick from. If you want a series that is feminine and fun, the pink pig checks are chic and sure to light you up.

If, on the other hand, you desire something eccentric and fanciful then the flying pig checks that show pigs apparently suspended through air and cascading sunshine on the world can be entertaining, as well.

Of course, the farm animal checks with the photographic images of pigs in the barnyard can't be beat. These are so realistic that you'll feel as though you can reach right into the checks and pet their snouts. You might even be able to hear their oinks!

Remember that for many of the check series, matching accessories are obtainable, too. A coordinating checkbook cover and address labels look great, but they're also useful and this can make them even more tempting.

When you went to your local bank to order your checks, you probably found them expensive and the whole trip was time consuming. You might have even ended up with checks you didn't like, thanks to their small supply on hand.

These days, however, you can purchase your checks from a reputable website and save as much as 50% off their cost. Plus, you'll have lots of pig inspired bank checks to choose from so you'll be certain to find a check series that you like and want to carry with you.
