* LintValue: Bloo wants to buy a statue of a mongoose fighting four cobras, but it costs $300.00. When he asks Mac what he has, Mac tells him that all he has is some green lint and some bluish-gray lint, saying the green lint might be more rare. The vendor overhears and says that purplish lint is the most rare, and he will knock $200.00 off if he had some. Bloo then sees Eduardo holding up a 100 bill he found, tackles him, and takes his 100 bill and some of his fur to pay for the statue. Mac then takes the 100 bill and Eduardo's fur away from Bloo, saying that neither of them belong to him.
* NotSoAboveItAll: Even some of the more sensible characters like Mac and Frankie, who at first try to convince Eduardo to save his money want to spend it on something they want. For the former, it's his ''Rocket Wars'' collection, and for the latter, it's the Zamboni.

* AnAesop: Greed can often bring out the worst in people.
* ButtMonkey: Wilt. In this episode, Madame Foster treats him like a workhorse making him unload heavy objects off the bus to sell at the swap meet, until he is exhausted and dehydrated.
