"For a kid on a 20 dollar a week allowance" .... Suddenly Scott's insanely free and easy stance towards spending exorbitant amounts of money on landfill makes a lot of sense
That's how much most kids I knew got when I was a kid.
In 1973 a $5.00 item would cost $22.70 in 2006.
That same item would cost $31.30 in 2021.
So $5 a week was probably the normal allowance when I was a kid but now $30 a week is probably the normal allowance for a kid.
When I was 12 yo, I had...2 euros a week. And I was fine with it :p
@@pollard068 I take it you grew up in the 1950s & 60s or early. Because the average price of a candy bar from 1900 to 1969 was a nickle. A sugar shortage caused the price to double (a dime) in 1970. Then 15 cents in 1973, 20 cents in 1976, and a quarter in 1978. Prices for candy bars have continued to stedily rise at about the same pace.
@@pollard068 That's a really recent trend. I take it you must be under 30?
imagine getting an allowance lmao
$20 a week allowance? Young Scott was really living it up
Ikr that’s what I would get in a year
@@goodusermaadinternet6774 exactly
You got to have an allowance?
All I got was beatings and CPTSD
That's reasonable ngl.
$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 got whatever coins were dropped on the ground
Imagine having an allowance
Wait allowance is real?
Charley Marlowe: Piratecoric Voice Actor No, it's a myth used to trick kids into doing cheap manual labour.
@@mrserket1264 ya that’s what happens when you have parents who care
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.
Yes, the true childhood souls experience
I mean, this is Ohio
@@Iamnotrandom565 shut up
😅
Ouch.
"$20 allowance."
Well that explains the four Wii U's.
My brain broke when he said that. Bruh comes from money money
I'm 13 and get 10 bucks. And I'm Canadian so that's like 7 bucks in America!
I only get 10 dollars every two weeks
You guys are getting allowance?
I got 100 dollars every week
I vividly remember the shelves of my local five below toppling from the weight of unsold Skylanders a few years back.
Someone should turn all those copies into a maze
Mine had old ps3 games
Lucky, I wasted hundreds of dollars on Lego Dimensions like an idiot, when I could've just went to five below for them
yeah they sold those for a while
you can see the involvement of the checkmark, many, many likes compared to other comments
Skylanders is godly
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
Let's hope that new hobby isn't playing a TCG like Yugioh or Magic because if that's the case, they might wanna go back to scraping the bottom of the bargain bin at Walmart.
I dunno, gaming is pretty cheap if you get second hand systems. My philosophy is, if it was fun a few years ago, its going to be fun today.
@@bluedistortions /r/patientgamers
@@bluedistortionsman that barely even happens anymore.
If you want anything besides the Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 get ready to pay out the ass most of the time
Plat free games online. Or buy cheap consoles for TV. 😄
Man, 20 dollars per week? You could buy 52 chicken shoots per year with that kind of money.
52 likes. Ironic
This is my old account, and I am flabbergasted.
only 52??????
$20 a week?! I can’t even imagine. That sounds like paradise.
$1,000 a year doesn't sound bad. Not counting birthday/Christmas money from relatives.
Inflation.
I got a $5 a week allowance as a wee lad. Weekend Pokemon cards
ehh?
Ikr
100% with Scott on the dollar store experience, as a young child picking things out with a very limited amount of money was fun.
Those sticky hands were the best item there hands down
@@jace.r You forgetting about the pop guns????
Even in our mid-20s, my sister still invites me to Dollar Tree for fun. Love looking at the cheap action figures with the goofy names! Probably why I binge Ashens vids so much.
@@BulkBogan I remember getting the stink bomb one time and just unloading it directly in my grandma's living room. I honestly remember it smelling fucking putrid.
I feel it a lot bc I grew up in a shitty small town where the dollar general and family dollar were really the only stores other than the grocery store
There was also a local Dept store chain named Alco that mainly operated in small towns but they shut down in like 2013
0:34 It's been two years since this video. Scott's days are running slim
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
For the longest time my only ps2 game was sonic riders lol its a reality .. it might as well have been my only game in general.. cause I was a 7 year old and my other shit was put away and I didn't know og ps games worked on the ps2 ..
Okay, actually, I do have a story like this... when I got my first GBA, the only game I had for a few months was a really awful Star Wars Episode 2 game. At least I could still play my GBC games so my situation wasn't quite so dire.
@@Tirgo69lol I played that game on my nds (by flashcart I didn’t pay for it)
"whatever Walmart doesn't eat five below will clean its plate"
This video is gold
And the table scraps from Five Below will trickle down to the Dollar Tree where they will be sold in trial size packets for $1.25.
Every video by Scott is gold
yeah, Scott is the literal best.
Scott is a wordsmith
I remember seeing a copy of Mario kart Wii on a dollar three once, I may never find that golden goose again.
Its the Wii Deleted You guy
ah yes the dollar three
Considering that a used copy of MK Wii goes for upwards of $70 on eBay now, you WILL never find that golden goose again.
My favorite store, the Dollar *Three*
Why you didn't buy it
Obviously that condom advertising was research based, seeing as wearing ninja turtle underwear will in turn get you into a situation where condoms could be used
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.
Bet it costs more now than your stores original price since Gamecube stuff skyrocketed in price recently.
@@KoopaKid660 It was a grocery store, we had no business pricing videogames. It's $25 now at most but I think it was like $5-$10 at most. This was like 2013.
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
I remember whe Dollarama here in Canada had a copy of NBA Baller Beats on Xbox 360 for $3 which traded in for $7. I only found out about it after seeing a RUclips video on it. I wished I grabbed more copies when they were more plentiful but you know hindsight is 20/20.
My five below has had several copies of destiny 2 for like a year now
@@VonSnuggles1412 Bestbuy straight up gave me a copy of Destiny 2 PS4 when i bought Spiderman from them i didnt want it but free is free. Months before it went completely free
That’s epic abuse of supply and demand right there. Hats off to you sir.
Back in the day when gamecube was still a thing dollar general sold gamecube controllera....can you guess how much money i made?
"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 think every Ohioan had that one cornfield that all the neighborhood kids would go play in, bonus points if it was infested with stinkbugs and bullet casings.
You also forgot drug addiction. Whatever drug depends on what part of the state.
@@seantaft3853 good ol Ashtabula
@Spewa2233 wtf why didn’t I get corn

0:32 Scott has less than a year left.
5:08 I don’t know why, but the tone of Scott’s voice when he says “hunny” matches that or an exhausted mom.

Can't wait to buy the officially licensed Scot the Woz Monopoly™ from my local Dollar General!
🤣🤣🤣
The last bit was GOLD. “I spent $105 on these games at Rite Aid and found them all on eBay for $46.” Classic.
@Weightless living I'll stick with Fifa.
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...
Scott really encapsulated what it was like when going to a store with video games was a luxury, as I kid I really only went to GameStop if my parents needed to get the vacuum repaired next door, so I grew very attached to whatever gaming scraps the grocery store sold
Guy stocking the rite aid: “this crap will never sell”
Scott: enters the rite aid
He’ll take their entire stock
Looks like Scott has Dollar Store lighting for this video
Was looking for a comment like this.
Thank you.
I hope the setup gets improved soon enough
Yeah this is the first verified comment I agree with.. :/
@Crow Key it feels like he’s
tinkering with the lighting because of G4
It's just the explosion next to him
My craziest dollar store find was a full Guitar Hero Live box set (with game and guitar included) being sold for 4 dollars.
I legit watch Scott's vids because no matter how bad I'm feeling, the dude always makes me laugh.
The most shocking revelation here was finding out Scott had a 20 dollar a week allowance like damn little 5th grader walk-in around with mad cash
Dude I was on about 20 dollars a year
@@jaysutter9934 you guys HAD allowances?
I didn’t have an allowance at all lol.

@@joshmerchant8737 I got a dollar a week for about 4 weeks.
"We know that cause I'll be dead in three years"
Judging from how dedicated Scott is to jokes I'd start making my peace
Don't worry. He promised to send a text message if he dies. Anyway, hell be too busy to be dead, he has to buy a chef's hat first.
@@johngreen8344 He has jury duty in 3 years, which means he can't die. If he doesn't show up, he'll go to prison!
Dont worry, he'll get cured
Hopefully his Leg Day legs he needs for Leg Days will be unharmed
@@DaSheepKiller Yeah, he also has a party to go to in three years.
As someone who loves in Indiana the dollar store trifecta was accurate.
My children always beg to go to dollar tree. They always know they'll wiggle something out of me. Usually fidgets
Snot the Woz dies this year….
Oh noes
1:22 Scott really is dedicated to these videos, he drove all the way back to a Five Below on a legit deserted island and re-stranded himself just to record a small bit of footage
I’m pretty sure you can only find Five below on the moon…
@@Noid or Florida. Florida loves them
@@helloill672 why do you think the cape canaveral exists? florida is the proverbial bridge to the moon
@@MUGENanaya well, that would explain all the odd white dust everywhere
he probably recorded each part separate, like doing all the island scenes on a beach or something and then moving on.
sorry I just have a knack for this thing.

@@nicholaskroeplin81 not really, I didnt have a DS and it was like 5 or 6 years ago
now all they have is tokyo mirage secessions fire emblem for 50 bucks
thats the lowered price, 50 for a wiiu game nobody ever bought
i got breath of the wild for 25 at a goodwill once. highlight of my life
Borderlands the Pre-sequal, bought it with my grandpa for 5 dollers.
Honestly that Sega with 80 games and being able to play games you buy for 30 bucks is a good deal.
I have one and it has all 3 Mortal Kombat games on it and a ton of others as well as plays my cartridges and controls wirelessly.....it's still under the tv in my living room an yes I play it
if it connects and works well on modern tvs then its damn near a steal. play retro games on emulated hardware on modern flatscreen tvs for only 30 bucks. hell new console aimed to play multiple retro game systems in one sell way more than that.
so good deal....no no no, its theft, youre literally stealing it from the store for just 30 bucks. lets hope they never realize what they have lol
The roms are trash and full of glitches and audio issues
@@spider-ham7140 there’s a newer version which was so much better the emulation is really good and the console looks like a proper genisis
@@jfoxxbrowningOMG I HAD THE SAME ONE
...and then i lost both the controllers
When I was a kid I was at a thrift store and I found Nicktoons Unite for the GameCube for a dollar. I got hours of playtime out of it. Good times
Nowadays just a GameCube box alone is worth like $5. So that was a pretty good deal.
@@MadsAboutYouyou can get lucky occasionally but It depends on your location I see games still for a dollar all the time only problem is they never get any except maybe once a month
Dollar Tree used to sell Wii accessories. Wiimotes wouldn’t even fit in some of them 🙃

Dollar tree dollar general five fused and created wish lol
I remember those giant bins of steering wheels and tennis rackets.
I remember back in 2016 my local Five Below had a ton of Metal Gear Rising PS3 copies. I had never played a metal gear game before and was like “wtf isn’t this game supposed to be good? Why is it here?” I just assumed it was a spinoff fans didn’t like that ended up making its way to the bargain bin. I bought it for shits and giggles and oh my god it was INSANE. Genuinely has been in my top 10 ever since. Hands down best $5 I’ve ever spent.
Damn, sounds like an amazing 5 dollars.
I got my copy on steam for 5 bucks too, what an amazing game. I want a sequel so bad but it will never happen
I used to work at a Five Below. The only video game we would ever have in stock was Battleborn. There was never a moment where that one spot on the shelf in the tech section didn't have a copy of Battleborn on it
As a born and raised Ohioan, Scott the Woz always makes my childhood feel validated
Scott is that guy who’ll go into a dollar store & ask the employee what the Black Friday deals are.
Top comment right here
me too
My local dollar general still has a copy of Thor for the DS selling for $20. They keep it behind the cash register.
I know I'd buy it, even though I'd never use it
You should probably get it before it sells out and the prices online for it, even when used start rising up to be way too high.
Also, the DS version is apparently actually good.
Went into my local dollar general the other day and they had twisted metal for psp up for sale for 30$. I was so confused but so tempted to buy it just cause it was funny seeing a sealed copy of a psp game nearly 17 years after the release date.
That's a Wayforward game that has some really cool giant spritework bosses that fill up both DS screens.
It’s like in Zelda games when they have 3 products and you have to assume that if you’re not buying it, no one is 💀
At 9:39 when you said "Gamer Gear", I got a "Trainline" advert of a guy tipping a tub of money into a toilet saying "I just love wasting money!"
I feel like that couldn't have been more appropriate.
I WORKED at RITE AID when they started to carry video games. And I can tell you the worst part about it. They would run sales on those games and advertise it in the flyer, and every time we would have these old ladies calling up and coming in, asking if we had new, popular games that just came out. Which of course we didn't. And sometimes the picture in the flyer would be a popular game, and I'd get "According to your ad, you carry Mario Kart, it's right here in the ad, and I'm not leaving until I get it!" Then they wanted us to check the back, then check other stores which we had no way of doing. Then complain about false advertising, how far they traveled, etc.
It was a headache.
I like how this came out after Dollar Tree announced they're starting to sell stuff for $1.25 starting next month
literally 1984
just got to that in the vidoe lol
Lol

This genuinely feels like 1984.
"$20 a week allowance"
what the fuck, I didn't realize Scott's parents were loaded.
yet scott chooses to make youtube video instead of living off his parents money.
Probably got a fifty cent piece per week and adjusted for inflation.
I knew a kid who got 50 week. He has a drug addiction now.
@@omegawario7479 That's about $2600 a year. If his parent taught him better he could've been rich off of Gamestop stock by now.

For Christmas a few years back I got the Sega Genesis plug n play as a present from my dad, it's still one of my most beloved Christmas presents to date. That Christmas my dad, my sister's and I all sat in my room playing Sonic and Mortal Kombat. No Christmas yet has topped that one
Scott: I had a $20 a week allowance
My friend: I had a $10 a week allowance

Can we talk about how at 5:40 he's putting down a jug of milk for just a moment? I appreciate Scott's dedication so much.
I half expected him to also reveal a glass of milk he was drinking. 😅
No stone unturned with our man Scott
It's the kind of dedication that is what I would do. Which makes Scott one of my favorite RUclipsrs.
Not just that, but the milk is a smoke screen to picking up the plug and play console in a highly smooth transition.
The true dedication was that he did the following segment, including the slap, in one shot
As an Ex-Dollar General employee, I'd like to say DG is not a dollar store, and it drives us crazy when you call it that. 😆 It USED to be one when they first opened, but as it grew and started popping up everywhere it phased out of that. Now there's just a dollar aisle.
Are we not gonna talk about the open cans of beans at 2:13?!
'20 dollars a week allowance'
Imagine having an allowance in the first place.

I never got an allowance as a kid, which made the fact that media always acted like EVERY kid got one really confusing to me.

I've worked at dollar tree and I can personally vouche that everything he pulled from the bag is something I've stocked there
When I was little, my dad randomly bought for me and my sister The Dog Island on PS2 at a 7/11. And I do think it is genuinely a very fun kids game and I really enjoyed it :)
My grandma used to take me to Pat Catans and there would always be random Skylanders there, and I ended up buying some.

I got mighty no 9, the.3ds chibi robo and both brand new at family dollars for 5 bucks a piece.
As someone who lived in Ohio for 3 years for college this is frighteningly accurate. The town I was in had a dollar store, our college, a gas station and little else. The day I moved in someone got shot one town over. And yes going to the dollar store was an event to us
He forgot about heroin
Ohioan here, can confirm all we have are corn, dollar stores and pregnant teenagers
Sounds like something you'd hear in an X-Play review.
I have worked at 2 separate Rite Aids a few years back, and both had Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings for DS. I think they just come with the store at this point.
So you're saying if I buy a Rite Aid, I get a free copy of Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings for DS?! What a bargain!
According to Rerez thats the original version. Wii version is shovelware and PSP version is the definitive edition
One rite aid had a ds guitar hero so long i saw it sun bleach in real time. Almost bought it but it felt like it belonged there

@Man of the Rain ah yes, the old slavic bootleg consoles, my favorite was the one that was also a keyboard for some reason
Tiger Electronics games are crazy
...I was easy to please as a kid.
Proven to be true for myself... i bought that Coleco plug and play console from Dollar General in 2005 (which i was ten years old) after the christmas parade in freezing temperatures and it's the most utterly worthless thing i ever played. I had a bootleg console in the living room (but it wasn't my Christmas present) that didn't last a year weeks later.
The AtGames Sega Genesis for as low quality as it is did help me appreciate Sega games as a kid. At least it has that going for it.
Everyone's talking about Scott's luxurious childhood $20 a week allowance, but the way he described going to the dollar store as a kid perfectly encapsulated my childhood going there as a broke kid in Mississippi.
My local Family Dollar had Bloodborne for $5 and I was baffled that such an amazing game was there to begin with and at such a low price, obviously I capitalized on this opportunity and bought that game without a second thought. How this Family Dollar got its hands on it is still a mystery to me.
I got Mario Maker 3DS for free... right before Mario Maker 2 came out/got announced. Don't remember that much.
You find an unopened copy for five buck and I buy a used copy from game stop that doesn’t work. How the world works in mysterious ways.
It was there just for you
"Someone left this here so we just put a pricetag on it"
probably because of DLC, I think Bloodborne released a GOTY edition or something with all DLC included. Since then, the vanilla version plummeted in price

I worked for Atari/Infogrames during the end of their time in the US, doing customer tech support for the shovelware they were supporting at the time. Almost every caller had bought their game at the grocery store and I had to walk them through running the games in compatibility mode because they were so grievously old. Our leads also had us walk completely computer-illiterate people through editing their registry file too, which was terrifying.
Ah regedit. We hate you
What Atari game required editing the registry?

In Germany in many shops we have something called "Grabbelkisten", boxes with cheap things in them. Most in electronic stores you can get movies, music, games and other thing for just 1 to 5 Euros. There is also the "Software Pyramide" and "Green Pepper" which did just cheaper rereleases of some older games.
Finally, a fellow dollar store dweller, this is an underappreciated art

@Vansz BS. I literally use it everyday and have been for a *very* long time.
@Vansz I've been working on PCs for ~30 years and can vouch that the vast majority of malware/viruses/etc are incredibly easy to avoid. The problem is that the majority of users are lazy smooth brains that expect their technology to do everything on its own.
Seeing Titanfall 2 as he talked about dollar store games tore my heart in two. It deserved so much better.
As a kid and now, the dollar store keeps being my weekend favorite stop.
I bought Tri-Force Heroes at 5 Below last year which I figured was a good price to check it out before realizing it’s practically unplayable single-player. Shockingly there were matches online but people just spammed the emotes. Plus unlocking costumes was heavily tied to playing with others and miiverse functionality that’s not accessible anymore and I started to want my $5 back.
So the only way to play the game would be locally, but if you do have 2 other friends with a 3DS, you could buy all 3 copies for $15 to play together !

When you realize Scott will make back every dollar he spent on these games in like a week. Props dude
less than that
Honestly, fore some of the Genesis games, I'd argue that pitching it up made it better. (Looking at you, The Ooze)
1:05 "damn" is massively underrated.
Scott saying the words “Bakugan: Battle Brawlers” enlightens me in some way lol
13:35 is the timestamp
I think I had that game!
“One of my favorite pastimes as a kid was to go to the dollar store, I live in Ohio your hobby’s that or getting shot”
As an Ohioan I feel this on a personal level
Two paths in life, which do you choose?
I think that's the bullet you feel
@@Fritz1105 probably getting shot
as an upstate new yorker so do I
Same here
Till this day I still hit up the dollar store before going to the movie theater.
Last year I bought a used copy of Wii Sports at my local library for $2. I thought that was amazing.
0:32 Scott is the only guy who will remember this line for a video 3 years later.
BUT WHAT ABOUT ROBO EBOLA?! THE CHEFS HAT. WHAT ABOUT THE CHEF HATTTTT
A little over half a year ago, I came across a bunch of 3DS/Wii U accessories at my Dollar Tree here in California.
I was able to snag a New 3DS XL carrying case with slots for the cartridges, a few silicone Wii U Gamepad covers, Zelda themed styluses and two full-on Wii Remotes. I walked out of the store only paying a little under $10.00
It felt like an actual dream, it was so surreal.
Which wii remotes were they? Motionplus? Maybe the themed ones?
Vsauce Joey brought me
You have one year left till those banquet meals catch up to you Scott
My favorite Dollar Store game was getting the steak and finding out if I survive the night
same though the hospital made me stop after my 40th stomach pump :(
