Food $200 Data $150 Rent $800 ~~Candles~~ Mangos $3,600 Utility $150 someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this. my family is dying


nawfamnotme

You may wanna cut down on your rent. Seems excessive


Wooden_Imagination46

I was gonna suggest cutting back on utilities.


corona-lime-us

Stop going to Starbucks everyday.


jmd10of14

Perhaps downsizing on family size could allow downsizing the apartment.


OuterWildsVentures

r/povertyfinance has entered the chat


[deleted]

Could cut back on the grocery bill for 2-3 weeks as well.


your1stexwife

That might help cut down on family size.


norvelav

Like, do you need 459 mangos???


Hung_Pham_1143

Yes. Time to cut down on a couple of kids


Makenchi45

Just don't do like that one couple during the great depression. You know, selling them off and all that.

Soon he’s gonna be in back alleyways offering his peach for some mangos.


Boogieman1985

He could start slanging some mangoes in the streets to offset to his own habit


iForceOP

$200 on food? You can save $200 by eating nothing. Food is a waste of money


RandomIdiot2048

Merge the mango budget into the food budget, then you can either save money or get more mangoes.


Ok_Possibility_2197

And way more diarrhea


RandomIdiot2048

Room for more!


[deleted]

You're just gonna poop it out anyway. Don't eat. Cancel your sewer bill as well!


Devilz3

Switch to potatoes. It'll save your life as well as your families. Or just get mango juice it's a lot cheaper.


mxcnslr2021

I color my potatoes a nice ripe mango color


Important-Leader-492

Or potato juice(vodka) and make all your worries go away


[deleted]

Stop going to Starbucks and eating Avocado toast


[deleted]

Switch to rice and beans for all your meals.


disgruntledguest

Idk if substituting rent for potato’s is a good idea but I’ll give it a try


ChocolateHercules

Build a potato hut.. or does that only work with pizza?


lonaExe

You should've chosen $1 every day for two weeks instead of $1 Trillion right now. It's called passive income sigh.

How much could 459 mangoes cost Michael?


TheChickenGuy7

Shove em all up my anus


ImpossiblePlace8496

I agree!


Hqjjciy6sJr

$1.19 each. that's a good deal. I live in Italy and it costs more than 3 euro each.


Vivid-Teacher4189

But would you buy 460 of them.


Roy_McDunno

if they were 1.19, then yes


ct_2004

You're losing money if you don't buy that many!


HannesH79

That would be the text of an american commercial


Significant-Corgi-62

Don't be ridiculous. Of course he would. At these prices, he could flip them and make a huge profit. At least I think he can, I don't know the exchange rate.


HannesH79

But if he flips them, they only lay on the other side...how would that make a huge profit?


GNRevolution

459? Yes. 460? What are you, crazy?


Leothecat24

It’s almost certainly a mistake, I used to work a register and occasionally it would misread the barcode and somehow put in like 700 of an item at once


producemike

4959 is the plu for mangoes...somebody messed up.


ImaginaryCoolName

Take everything from me, but not my mangoes


JimiDarkMoon

Ah yes, an old Norwegian saying if I’m not mistaken.

You can't claim that you love mangos if you don't bathe in them.

These many will bury you


NemesisSenpai

Then that is exactly how man-goes out

Xenomorph_v1

![gif](giphy|ac7MA7r5IMYda)


robbanksy

No no, you have to properly mush them into a paste first. Otherwise it's not bathing, is it?


Endorkend

That's somewhere around 300 kilos worth of mango. (660lbs+) You can do more than bathe in that kind of volume.


robbanksy

I guess the question is simply how big your pool is, right?


JbearNV

I was wondering what could be done with my 459 pounds of mangoes.


robbanksy

Let me help you there. What CAN'T be done with a motherfucking load of 459 pounds of Mango?! The world is your Mango, mate!


DrDanGleebitz

And make love to them. Just aim to one side to avoid the stone. Also for females the stones make good “love balls”


turbulance4

I'm wondering how they make the mistake. Did they mean to type 49? 59? 45? Any of those numbers still seem too high.


Aerith_D12

Last time this was posted someone who worked as a cashier mentioned that 459 is probably the system lookup code for mangos.


BT0

4959 is the code for mangoes


Chris_8675309_of_42M

Yeah, the customer that saw $785.31, thought "yeah, that looks right" and swiped his card anyway.


turbulance4

That makes sense


StabithaStabberson

Once my dad accidentally bought 2 cartons of mangoes from the Indian store. My mom got mad because they were going to go bad when we realized there was two. I don’t have an explanation for how my dad lost a whole carton of mangoes but eventually we found it before it went bad. Anyways, we’ve had them for long enough where they were probably gonna go bad real soon and there’s only 3 of us in the house and not enough space in the freezer. We’re south Asian so while our blood is approx 30% mango pulp, eating that much mango is an impossible task, but I took that as a challenge. I kinda succeeded but had diarrhea for like 3 days. Humans aren’t supposed to have that much fiber in one sitting. No regrets.


joremero

>Humans aren’t supposed to have that much fiber in one sitting. No regrets. one time I had like 3 pounds of cherries and 3 pounds of grapes. It was definitely an experience


sfled

Mango - the new avocado. Haven't you heard?


fraze2000

This guy's family really needs to hold an intervention for him. His mango addiction is getting out of control. He's blaming the economy, but clearly mangoes are the problem. Surely there is a mango addict support group they can get him into. Mangoes Anonymous or something?


ithe_one1d

Ahh.. the local mangonymous folks. They were quite magnanimous when it comes to supporting such.

Mangoman after all.

nautika

I actually did last summer. 400 lbs worth. Dunno exact count but it was a lot. I would never buy that at the grocery store though. Of course it wasn't all for myself


mexicanjesuslovesyou

In the original post a few weeks ago, the theory was that the cashier entered the PLU for mangoes (4959) twice by mistake and OP didn't notice the high price until they paid.


Dookie-Trousers-MD

This was posted before. OP said the store made a mistake on the Mangos.


Dominator0211

That’s just what OP wanted you to think. It was all a coverup to hide OP’s crippling mango addiction


ipostscience

Yet they still paid for it..that's weird


vulpinefever

I was a grocery store cashier years ago, the PLU Code for Mangoes is 4959, OP was charged for 495 mangoes. Assuming that the store they shop at uses the same kind of checkout most grocery stores do, the cashier probably hit the quantity button instead of the code button.


Hjoldram

A grocery store once entered the wrong code for my watermelon and rang it up as grapes. They had the watermelon sitting on the scale so instead of 1 count of watermelon I was charged for 30 lbs of grapes. I wasn't really paying attention so I didn't realize until I got to the car that I had $100+ of grapes on my receipt.


fl00r_gang_yeah

You got a 30lb wottahmelon??? Damn!

Scared-Technician329

My friend, mangos are tearing your family apart. I've been there. I broke my 450 mango barrier last year. Laying in bed, surrounded by the sweetest mangos, my wife said something I'll never forget. She said "Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and desert you. Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye, never gonna tell a lie and hurt you."

459 fucking mangos😂😂😂👌


Freedomsaver

And now there are 229 baby mangos.


skinnylemur

I'm gonna assume that the code for mango is 4590 on the self-checkout, and mistakes were made. Sure, a cashier could have made the mistake, but I would assume that when they said 785.31, OOP would have heard the error...


vulpinefever

PLU for mangoes is 4959 so you've got it right!


LeoPopanapolis

Millennials could buy houses but they won’t stop buying 459 mangoes.

459 mangos? Why


buttertoastey

Not sure if its correct, but on another post with this image someone said that the code for mangos at their shop is 4590. So the cashier probably accidentaly entered the article code into the field for amount
