I vividly remember the shelves of my local five below toppling from the weight of unsold Skylanders a few years back.

$20 a week allowance? Young Scott was really living it up

[ChaseRaph]

100% with Scott on the dollar store experience, as a young child picking things out with a very limited amount of money was fun.

[fernandoantoniomusic]

The fact that Scott considers a $20 a week allowance a tight budget as a child is amazing to me. The only thing I ever got when I asked for an allowance was the threat of an ass-whoopin.

This video is gold

I remember seeing a copy of Mario kart Wii on a dollar three once, I may never find that golden goose again.

$20 a week allowance?! All I got was $1 for lunch in middle school and a “good luck!” Little Scott was living like a king!

I worked at a Pathmark from 2011-2014. At some point we landed a Gamecube copy of The Urbz and nobody ever bought it, I think it somehow got in with an order of crappy DVDs we sold in one aisle. It even got marked down over 50% off and still nobody bought it.

It was like 2013 and we were trying to sell one single Gamecube game. The Wii U was brand new by then.

"I live in Ohio, your hobby was either that or getting shot."
As an Ohioan, this is not true at all. You can also get diseases in the corn fields.

I remember my local Five Below being stocked with Infinite Warfare for $5, when Gamestop was buying used ones for $10, I bought $55 + tax worth and got back around $110

[lukeskywalker]

"$20 allowance."

Well that explains the four Wii U's.

[lochlannjohnson]

Man, 20 dollars per week? You could buy 52 chicken shoots per year with that kind of money.

[latindoggy]

Guy stocking the rite aid: “this crap will never sell”
Scott: enters the rite aid

[GregTurismo]

$20 a week?! I can’t even imagine. That sounds like paradise.

[Linky]

Scott is that guy who’ll go into a dollar store & ask the employee what the Black Friday deals are.

[Tirgo]

Scott introducing the concept of Mighty Number 9 being a kid's only game for an extended period of time haunts me to this day

[joemedlen]

I've worked at dollar tree and I can personally vouche that everything he pulled from the bag is something I've stocked there

[Zyphon]

Dollar Tree used to sell Wii accessories. Wiimotes wouldn’t even fit in some of them 🙃

[alejandrovallencci]

The first line, “what do you do when you wanna play games but you’re on a budget?… find a new hobby” pretty much sums up the game industry lmao

[astraldreamz]

This is exactly how I felt going into a Poundland here in the UK.

"Everything's £1 or less!!"

I spent £3.50 on the Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs DVD collection, and haven't been able to live it down ever since...
