Boyfriend told my sister we'd pay her $110 to babysit.

That's just mean. You know she has to pay hundreds to save the 110. What kind of fat cats do you think we are? Who would use coupons like that?? Honestly?? Mr. Rockefeller over here that's who... Paying his babysitters in golden toilet paper...

We usually leave the kid with the trash pandas, but thought we'd splurge on a babysitter with our new found riches!

The trash pandas would have at least raised the kid right.

Times are tough. Obviously none of us would use that sheet of coupons (even though the meals are loaded with hundreds or thousands of calories, the penny-to-lentil ratio is still better even with the coupons so it's still wasteful), and sometimes you gotta take advantage of fat cat babysitters while you're out scrounging for protein.

I fully support what OP did. Coupons might be worthless for us, but they're good as gold for people who don't give a shit about wasting their money. With zero expenditure on your part (and until they find out what you're doing) you can reap considerable rewards.

Apparently the humor in this was lost on you. DISCLAIMER: Would not really pay a babysitter in fast food coupons!!

However we are both cheapos, he just has a little less tact than I do about his frugal ways. We look for every discount we can find.

You cant read sarcasm through text. When you say "he definitely can be" I assumed you actually gave your sister coupons as payment.

Check out Bill Gates here with his fancy-ass "coupons" - in color, no less.

Those coupons didn't come from thin air, which has been my diet for a while now.

This fatcat Daddy Warbucks showoff probably has some fancy-ass "mailbox" somewhere that the coupons were delivered to.

What's next? Offer your sister the Crown Jewels to babysit?

These kinds of shows of opulence is destroying this sub.

You could afford to spend them? Some have all the luck. We used the coupons as blankets, because we had no bed sheets or bed to keep us warm at night.

People pay money to leave their children with you? How do I begin to take advantage of this? Children make excellent thieves and pity mongers; I've been attempting to persuade people to lend me their children for years now.

You're the kind of people that I would babysit for a second time while you were away all weekend. I'd have a nice steak, egg, and milk dinner Friday night finished off with a bottle of whiskey. Saturday morning would consist of me shitting in every single toilet and leaving the lids open for the rest of the weekend.
