Don't be fooled by substitutes!

It's different, that's for sure!
The routine is basically an origami (paper folding) trick that gets funnier with each easy fold.

You relate a tale about trying to plan for your own funeral (yes, it actually gets funny!):
"Last week I got a brochure in the mail advertising the benefits of pre-planning my funeral.
Well, I made a grave mistake and called for an appointment.
The salesman said, 'You can have this beautiful casket for only $20,000."
As you are talking, you display a huge (25" wide by 38" tall) banner with a drawing of an embossed casket with an Austrian canopy and French velvet drapes.
"'That's really more than I want to spend', I said.
He countered with, 'No problem, we can eliminate the Austrian canopy, but still give you these beautiful French velvet drapes. That casket is only $15,000.'"
And you fold the top section of the banner down, which changes the illustration, making the casket smaller and less ornate.
"'Still, that's really more than I'd like to spend.' I told him.
He was persistent and told me, 'Look, I can eliminate the French velvet drapes and give you this gorgeous German embossed casket for just $9,000.'"
Again you fold the banner, which changes the illustration and makes the casket even smaller and less fancy.
"I told him still that was more than I want to spend.
That's when the salesman told me he had the perfect casket for me."
You make one last fold of the banner- and the resulting picture is of a large trash can!

This super easy effect is very visual and good for any size group.
It "plays big and packs small"!
