The Story

Buster is broke and needs some money to buy Christmas presents. His mum says she'll give him some money if he digs over the garden. The thought of the digging gives him and idea and he buries his old piggy bank in the garden.

Buster waits for Bully Buggs and his pal Spike to come by he says out loud that he's buried some treasure and has to make a map. Buggsie and Spike wait for Buster to draw his map, then tear it off the wall and start digging up the garden looking for treasure.

They eventually find the Piggy Bank and shake it, it rattles nicely and they head off to share it out. Buster calls out his Mum who is very impressed and gives Buster some money. But then, their neighbour gets angry, as all the weeds and rubbish have been thrown into his garden, and he throws it back. Buster decides it's time to disappear, as Buggsie and Spike discover it's just buttons in the piggy bank.

Buggsie, Spike and Mum chase after Buster as he rushes into a shop to hide!
