This post could also be titled: We were almost washing dishes: What to do when you forget your money!
Last night we took the kids to see a movie. All of them. We don’t often do this as it is expensive and hard to find a movie that everyone wants to see together. But it was $5 movie night at a theater, a town away, PLUS $.40 cent wings night so my husband was the one motivated to go. It is one of these movie theaters where you eat at the theater. We were calculating about $7 a person for dinner and a movie, not counting the 2 little kids who don’t eat anything, and they baby, who they usually don’t charge a ticket for.
We walk up to the counter and the cashier says, “How old is the baby?”
Paul thinking she is admiring how cute she is, cheerfully says, “12 months!”
Cashier says, “we don’t allow anyone under the age of 5”
Huh? We did not know this, we have been here before but with the older kids. We were seeing a kids PG show, so we ask, “not at the kids show?” thinking maybe she though we were watching something R?
The cashier says she will talk to her manager and came back 5 min later and says we can bring the 1 year old in, but we have to pay an adult ticket for her. Um o.k. all the tickets were $5 anyway! Paul goes to pay and can’t find the debit card. He looks at me, “where is the card?” I say, “I don’t know you had it last”. Now there is a line waiting to get in. I tell them to go ahead and we dump out my purse and Paul’s pockets on the ground looking for the card. “Do you have any cash?” he asks, I pull out a crumpled up few bills. Paul finds a gift card we had from last year, “I think there is some money on it!” he says! The girl tries the card and IT WORKS! Yea! We had $51 on it and the total was $45.
We get to our seats, Paul and I are laughing, “she must think, wow, they have no money and are digging for cash to see a movie!”
Now, we have to order our food. I had about $30 in cash so we can still get dinner…. we hit the button and the server gets to us as the movie starts and it gets dark. Paul orders the wings and we tell the 7 year old she can get a basket of 4 mini burgers to share with the kids that won’t eat wings. Paul orders 2 drinks thinking that they are $1.25 each. We figure we should be at $20 and be able to tip pretty well.
Movie is horrible. It was (The Zoo Keeper, I don’t recommend it)
As the movie ends we get our bill. $65. WHAT?! OMGosh! In disbelief Paul and I are reading it over and over again. We ask the server if it is right. Only the bone in wings were on sale, we got boneless. I DIDN”T KNOW! Paul’s 2 drink were $2.75 each. We were looking at the kids drinks apparently. The 7 year old ordered 2 mini burger baskets not 1. It was dark and they were at the end of another row so I didn’t see them, they walked over to us to get wings. Plus, the tip was now 20% added on and $5 in tax I had not counted on! What a disaster!
I am freaking out, we only have $30 in cash on us. We can’t even go get cash as we can’t find the debit card and it is 10pm so I can’t run to a bank. We start asking kids if they have any money on them! Paul runs out to the car to see if he can find any there under the seat and the 7 year old says her wallet is in the car. OHH, please let her have her birthday money in there! I am laughing thinking about begging her birthday money off of her!
Seriously, what do you do? Are they going to make us wash dishes? Do I leave a kid and promise to come back with cash? I am just kidding. I started thinking of what friends I could call that would run me up some money, this was ridiculous. Paul comes back with the 7 year olds wallet. It has $6 in it. “Where is your birthday money?!!!” I almost yell. “You told me to leave it at home and not carry it with me.” she cries. Since when do they listen? The 13 year old has no cash on him, he is now hiding from embarrassment.
We just stand there for a minute looking at each other trying to figure out how to come up with $30 from thin air, when I see the 11 year old “money bags” wandering around. “Hey, do you have any money on you?” I ask as if she didn’t know what was going on. “I might have a little.” she says. “Can. I. Borrow. Some?” I ask her trying to be nice as she can clearly hear what is going on. She pulls her wallet out and has no less then $120 in it!!!!
“Are you kidding me?! When were you going to tell us you had money!!!” I ask. She has watched us scrounging for money for 10 minutes. Did she want to see us do dishes? “I don’t know” comes the standard kid answer. “Well, can I borrow $30?” I ask. “I guess” she replies painfully. We pay and leave. I am still sweating.
As we get in the car, we are still shaking our heads, our frugal family night out has cost us $110 to see a horrible movie. Everyone is also hungry still. What a waste, Paul and I are sick about it, but the kids had fun.
This morning I get up and walk into the kitchen, on the fridge door is a note: “You owe me $30” it was from “Money Bags.” Sheesh, now I just need to find my debit card!
Amy says
I just found your site thru the Back to School giveaway and I’m glad I did. Thanks so much for the story! Sometimes it’s hard to remember that all of us have bad cash days even when you’ve planned your trip.
Ashley W says
wow,what a night,sorry it was so stressful,thats why I don’t take my kids to the movies,we have 6 kids.We always rent a movie,much cheaper for use !
Kathy C. says
I know it’s probably still too fresh for YOU to be laughing…but I have tears streaming down my face from laughing! I just know how crazy I would have been if I’d been in that situation!! Ughhh…I hate when I’ve miscalculated and the sweat starts! Here’s to a well deserved nap for you today! 🙂
Amanda says
Oh Tiffany-I may be new to couponing but I have 4 kids and my hubby just finished long grad school (PhD and master’s) 4 yrs ago so I have had those nights! LOL!! I really needed to read that today!!! Thanks for the laugh that others have those moments too!!! BC the kids remember it as a fun night-we remember the sweating bullets!!! Have a great day and laugh about it today! Good luck finding the debit card-maybe it got left in a pocket in the laundry… LOL
Cassie Walker says
I just love how your 11 y/o can hang on to money that long. When I was 11, I would’ve been begging to go to walnart to buy toys. Great job on teaching them the value of a dollar.
kristi says
LOL ATLEAST ALL GOT FIGURED OUT QUICKLY THANKS FOR MY MIDAFTERNOON LAUGH! OH AND I HAVE NOOOO IDEA WHAT I WOULD HAVE DONE! BUT I HAVE HAD TO BORROW FROM MY KIDDO BEFORE-GOOD ‘OL HURRICANE IKE PLANNED FOR EVERYTHING EXCEPT THE FACT THAT DEBIT CARDS PROB WOULDNT WORK…FELT SO BAD (SINCE IT WAS EXACTLY HER 1ST BDAY AND I WAS TAKING MONEY FROM HER PIGGY BANK) SHE MADE A LOT IN INTEREST LOL WHO KNEW A 1 YR OLD COULD HAVE ENOUGH TO GET YOU THROUGH THE WEEK LOL
Michele says
YES!!!! hahahaha….I love your family stories…I’m sorry that happened…but it’s also very funny. Thank you for sharing!
Reyna Espinoza says
LOL! This is too funny! Me and my husband always blame the lost debit card on each other…though it always seems to turn out at the bottom of my purse!
shirley curlee says
I love your story, we did that but at a restaurant, it was mother’s day of all days had my MIL w/us and I didn’t take my purse and my husband forgot his cc’s. needless to say we went to the car found a check and had to have a mgr ok it since they dont except checks. It was embarrassing but a lesson learned for me Always take your purse you never know what the other will forget. lol
Monica Leal says
LOL! i read this to my 12yr old…we had a good laugh!
Wynne says
Oh wow! What a horrible night!! 🙁 I’m so sorry it turned out the way it did, but at least your 11yo was able to help! (maybe I should start letting my kids take their money out of their piggy banks when we go somewhere…) And I will mark that movie as a ‘don’t bother’, thanks for the heads up!
Lexie says
Wow, that is such a funny story! I love it, I can see that happnening to me and I’m glad I’m not the only one who has mistakes like this.
Sherry says
I am with Kathy C; the tears from laughing so hard are streaming down my face! Thanks for sharing and I’ve got a 21 year old who would have left the note in CAPS on the fridge. lol
Karen says
Dieing Laugh and my 10 yr old says what’s so funny? I tell him about the lady from the church when we helped sort and your story, he says Mom you do that too! I have lost or forgotten my debit card countless times…
Rudaviro says
Your personal stories always make me laugh soo hard. I have heard similar experiences which left me feeling like the most disorganised worthless mother alive, its nice to know some people also have those experiences. As for the note on the fridge… I have been woken up in the middle of the night for a borrowed $2 note so i know that only too well. Enjoy….you are making memories..lol!!!!!
shelley orben says
lol loved the story – your 11 yoa sounds like my son but he would add a surcharge!!
Stephanie says
Thanks for the laugh. Needed it today.
My 15 yr. old loans $ to my father occasionally, and he always charges him interest.
Stacey says
Omg I feel bad saying this but you just gave be the laugh I needed today reading this 🙂
Linda says
LOL! Thanks for sharing! That is hilarious! I can definitely relate! 🙂
Kari says
I am cracking up over the note on the fridge!!
Sheri S. says
Thank you for sharing this! I enjoy the personal stories – – one reason I check your site regularly.
Think I’ll double check the money before our family of 7 heads out for supper to celebrate my husband’s birthday tonight! 🙂
Juliann says
Gosh, the debit card thing happened to me the other day. I took my two kids to the store in 106 degree weather to grab ingredients to make cookies and cheesecake for something my husband was doing the next day. I could not find my card anywhere and I had $30 on me, so I was running through the store freaking out, doing math in my head. I got to the register sweating bullets, go to pay, bam, there’s my debit card floating at the bottom of my purse. Ugh…stories like this happen once a month in our house! I was laughing hysterically at the note that was left on your fridge, I could totally see myself leaving that note when I was 11!
gina says
lovin’ your story. i was in the gym on the eliptical machine and giggling to myself. people must have thought i was a nut….i am a mother of five so this just seems to be typical of something that seems nice and easy turning into something truely insane……this is what memories are made of!!!!! they will remember this always!!!
Tiffany says
See, that’s why I am here…. To make working out fun!!!!
Pamela says
I wish I had been there.I think this story is very funny.Maybe you should write a book of your experiences having such a big family and trying to be frugial.I laughed and laughed should of video tape the whole thing.
Raquel says
LOL!!!! I can’t stop laughing!!! Thanks for sharing! bawwwwahahhaha!!!!!!!!
Kristin says
🙂 bad experience for you but wonderful reading for us!
Veronica says
Oh wow…glad you finally made it out of there ok! I feel bad for you spending all that money unintentionally and then not even enjoying the movie! We just recently went to see the new Harry Potter movie (4 of us) and I couldn’t enjoy it due to the ticket prices 🙁
Maria says
Thanks for sharing…love your personal stories. I’m left cracking up over the note on the fridge too!
Stephanie says
That was a great story!!
Sammie says
I went to lunch with some co-workers and our way back to the office I read this I was laughing so hard my boss pulled over so he could read it! The whole car was crackin up thanks for the good laugh I needed that
Paisley says
OMG almost fell out of my chair laughing! I’m so sorry that happened, BUT it did make for an awesome story. I hope some of your beautiful babies will be at the Woodlands Coupon Class!
Chris says
Oh my goodness, I was feeling anxious just reading about your misadventure!
Glad it all worked out in the end, thanks for sharing, you’re the best!
Eileen says
Okay – at least I know I’m not the only one. Every time I think I have a “cheap night out” figured out – it always ends up costing at least 3 times as much as I estimated!
Jen says
That story was very entertaining…but the best part was the note on the fridge bahaha! Absolutely Priceless.
Holly M says
What a great story.. I was LMAO through the WHOLE thing !!! Thanks for sharing…. And give that baby her $30 back, lol.
Kim says
…and I thought I was the only one. I have at least two days a week like this. Its just pure panic and embarrassment from all around, but, we always manage somehow. Your story is a prime example of why giving your kids allowance and making them work, making them save that bday money, and learn the value of a dollar is important (b/c you never know when mommy and daddy might need a loan, lol). I loved this story. Thanks for sharing Tiffany.
Alicia says
LOL..I have to laugh at this one. My husband and I have left our debit card at home and had to actually go home to get it. Or should I say I went home to get it while he tried acting cool and playing it off like he was just chilling with the kids and would pay when he was ready.
Darryl says
LOL: 11 year old “money bags” — great story.
Penny says
I feel so bad for you, I thought taking 4 children out was hard, I cannot even imagine what you were going through, Thank goodness your child had some extra cash for you. Wow. Hope it all works our for you the next time you go out.
Lisa says
Oh my gosh! my kids were lookin at me crazy cause I was laughing so loud. I know it must hve been horrible and I have had some crazy times like that as well. Thank you for sharing and Im glad you all were able to work it out….LOL!
Ronda says
Oh my gosh, I am so sorry reading this amused me so much! I would have been horrified in your place, and there would definitely not have been an 11 year old to bail me out. So happy it worked out in the end for you all!
Sandy says
LOVED reading about your movie night experience! I even read it out loud to our family at dinner. My husband said, “Now that is the kind of family WE need to hang out with!” It’s refreshing to know there are other families out their like ours! We are not alone! Too funny. Thanks for sharing.
Tiffany says
We say that all the time! If you are in Houston we should see a movie together! I promise I will bring money 🙂
Jennifer says
Wow!!! My family can relate. We have had your experience. One time we even left 1 of 8 kids at the restaurant restroom! (We had 2 cars.) We also have children who hold onto their money and couple who don’t mind contributing. We prefer to rent and eat at home!! We have taken them to a dollor movie theater and McDonalds before hand, just to get out of the house. (They were younger then)
Maria says
Okay, I’ve got tears in my eyes I’ve laughed so hard! I read your post to my husband & he laughed just as hard as I did. Thanks for the story! (I can’t believe they charged you $5 for the baby!) I bet you won’t be going back there anytime soon. 🙂
Kelly says
Good laugh for the day! I have four girls and this story sounds just like my 13 year old. We call her miser all the time. She is always Miss Money bags and if anyone borrows money from her, you can be sure to be reminded of it constantly until it is paid back.
Shelly says
Sorry but I had to laugh. We have been there too, borrowed money from my then 10 year old and within 5 minutes of getting home he was asking when we were going to pay him back. He also proceed to call Papaw to tell him that his mom and dad “took” his money and won’t give it back. LOL!!! And yes we did pay him back the next day but not soon enough for him.
Irma says
Thanks for sharing! I am laughing so hard! Although in the moment, it is not funny when those type of things happen, it is so funny once you are out of the situation. I talk about you all the time to my husband! Thank you for sharing! I also like to use your recipes for inspiration. I made the Vanilla Choc Chip Cookies,and they were delicious! 🙂
Heather says
I am in TEARS LAUGHING over this story!!!! I even called my husband in to listen to me read it out loud…. HAHAHA We have been in that situation a few times ourselves! Life can be pretty hilarious sometimes~ Thank goodness all worked out well! LOVE your blog 🙂
Tiffany says
It was pretty funny, even at the time. Thank you so much!
Alison says
I love your stories the best and it keeps me coming back to your blog daily to see what is going on. This was a great story for me to read this morning. I went to Rite Aid once to do my whole deal and got to the end of a huge ring up after coupons and after UP rewards to find that I had no wallet, no credit cards, and no PURSE! It was all in the diaper bag. My total was only a few dollars but luckily my husband has a weird rule (possible based on me loosing my purse on too many occasions) that I have to leave money in the center console of the car. I asked the cashier to hang on as the line was piling up behind me so that I ran to the car in a horrible panic! I was really glad it was there and I don’t know what I wouldn’t have done otherwise. It would be more horrible with the whole family there and you are super lucky that you have a little one that didn’t listen and leave the money at home. 🙂 Here is to renting a movie next time and making yummy food at home!!!
Ruth says
Oh my goodness this was SO funny!
Stephanie says
Super Cute I had to share it with all my co-workers me and a friend call it suffering from CRS (can’t Remember Sh&#). We are always going out with our kids and forgeting something!
Jennifer Rote says
LOL I would have busted out in tears and turned around when you were trying to get in!
stephanie miller says
omg how awful!! but its so easy when u r at those theatres that have dining for that to happen! i have had to put half my groceries on my credit card before, because we forgot to put things on the list, and a last minute birthday gift.
petritia selvi says
did this happen for real?
Tiffany says
Yes it did. I could not possibly make that up.

Oh my goodness! what an ordeal!!! We never go to the movies or really anywhere because it to so spendy!
