🤣 Y’all, this is my new favorite show! Not just my favorite YouTube show, my favorite show on all media! ❤️👏🤣 The combination of Rachel, George AND your producer asking the questions is fire! 🔥
I’m a flight attendant and this episode reminded me of something I did recently. We were leaving Hawaii and I was working first class. Each meal comes with a bread roll but guys, the rolls coming from Hawaii are DELICIOUS (sorry George)! Every person in first class wanted their meal but I hate it when someone doesn’t eat their roll but I would have had it not been on their plate. So instead of giving each person a roll I put all of the rolls in a basket and handed them out one by one after giving the trays and I ended up with four rolls which I happily made into sandwiches and ate behind the curtain singing to myself. I was wondering how sketchy that was but now I feel even better about it! 🤣
Love y’all so much! Stay awesome! ❤️

I agree with a queen size bed after a crib. We got one for our son and it worked out so well. We lived in a 2 bedroom apartment so when family would come to visit they could use that bed. He used it til college and then when he got married he and his wife used it to stay out of debt for bedroom furniture until they had the money and space to upgrade.

I love George's tech saviness. Mail forwarding and google voice number is actually pretty neat. I actually learned something new here. Haha

[blurrble]

I love how Rachel's like "come on people pay for your subscriptions!" 4 min later "I think it's completely morally ok to use a guy for SEVEN free meals"

[iamdaphnewilliams]

OMG! Rachel ratted out her family over a Netflix password🤣

[autumnjerene]

I'm laughing at Rachel justifying a queen bed for a child. 🤣
I, too, buy a bed that will last my child till they move out of my home. However, most teens fit in a twin size bed. Queen sized beds are for married couples. They fit 2 people.

One time my friend and I HATED a movie. About 15 minutes in, we got up and switched movies! I remember feeling guilty, but we paid admission and wanted to see a movie we LIKED. 😂

This show is so much more about personal ethics and personal integrity as pertains to money/greed than saving hacks. It’s actually eye opening but also makes me think about my own as to what i can justify my actions regarding saving money.

[shaysloan]

Watching this episode (with headphones) in public. I’m laughing loud enough that someone asked me what I was watching. 😂. Great show!!

[jessejustsick]

The problem with the pay-it-forward chain, is that once you pay out of obligation to the "chain", it has pretty much lost all the virtue in it. I just pay it forward when I want to do something nice for someone else. The whole point is to make the order free for the person in back of you. Not to rope them into feeling guilty.

I'll just bet that most servers DON'T report all their tips. Their hourly wage is unbelievably low. Here in VA it's app. $3 per hr. Also, most don't get any perks such as paid vacation, sick leave. medical insurance, etc. I don't blame them for not reporting all tips.
LOVE ❤️ your show!!!

This epi is gold. I love how honest they are and their personalities compliment each other so well

[avenj]

Rachel is not consistent with these unethical categories lol
I like it! 😂

[authenticallyallison]

Steals a towel but has a problem with sharing a streaming service account 😂😂😂😂

[andiclemenza]

I honestly think this has been the best episode so far

[cristyrobertson]

My mother in law hoarded, condiment packets then never used them, some were so bad they were dried out. One year my kids and I collected condiment packages for the whole year and gave her a stocking full of condiment packages for Christmas. Most fun we ever had collecting weird and odd condiment packets. She loved it.

I was watching the previous videos here on YouTube. This is so much better with video. Being able to see George & Rachel's expressions is priceless! Especially when Rachel is silently laughing or dying of embarrassment.

[leilacavender]

This episode was truly so thought provoking to me and also just interesting to hear other people’s moral compasses and to consider that we all have different thresholds for right and wrong on some of these gray areas! Love you guys!! And King Charles in a queen bed truly had me laughing out loud❤
