In "The Thrifty Spendthrift," Donald Duck’s latest scheme takes a wildly unexpected turn when he acquires a hypnotic ray from a scientist, hoping to exploit Scrooge’s frugality. But when a misfired projection shows Scrooge a picture of a dog instead of Donald, the miserly uncle goes into full spending frenzy—buying every gift from "The Twelve Days of Christmas" for the canine. Written, drawn, and inked by Carl Barks, this classic tale of mistaken identity and comedic excess is brought to life with the artist’s signature detail and charm, all on a cover by Barks himself.

In "The Thrifty Spendthrift," Donald Duck’s misguided attempt to exploit Uncle Scrooge’s miserly nature backfires spectacularly when a hypnotic ray misfires, turning Scrooge into an unexpectedly generous force—prompting him to buy every gift from "The Twelve Days of Christmas" for a dog he never meant to include. With Huey, Dewey, and Louie watching in disbelief and the Duchess of Duckshire caught in the chaos, Scrooge’s sudden spending spree sends shockwaves through the money bin and the entire Duck family.
