They Dropped Off Two Kids For Me For A Week Because... - Best Reddit Stories ----- They Dropped Off Two Kids For Me For A Week Because "You're On Vacation And You're Not Doing Anything". I Took The Kids With Me To The Spa, To A Cafe, And Shopping. Everything Was Paid For With Their Card — The Kids Themselves Told Me Where It Was ----- My sister Katie decided that since I was on vacation, I should be her free babysitter for a week — no warning, no asking, just dropped off her two feral kids, Evan and Chloe, with a half-empty bag of Goldfish and peeled out of my driveway like she was fleeing a crime scene. She left no money, just chaos and vibes, so when the kids mentioned something called "Mommy’s Fun Card," I checked their bag and found a shiny gold Amex. According to them, Mommy said they could use it for whatever they wanted when she wasn’t there. So, we leaned all the way in. Spa day for all of us. Fancy cafes with artisanal toast and $14 lattes. The kids, now connoisseurs of luxury, demanded fancy chocolate milk and floral bread, and Evan confidently tipped fifty bucks because "it’s Mommy’s Fun Card." By midweek, we were running through the mall like we were on Supermarket Sweep — new shoes, LEGO sets, Build-A-Bear, and a personal visit to Sephora where I blacked out and walked out $347 poorer but smelling fantastic. The best part? The Fun Card wasn’t even Katie’s. It was her husband Brian’s work Amex, the one tied to his expense account and corporate email. When they came to pick up their moisturized, pampered children, I handed Katie a Ziploc bag of receipts and told her we’d used the Fun Card. Her entire brain short-circuited when she realized what I meant, and Brian’s soul left his body when he realized his next expense report was 90% spa days and Sephora. Katie’s grounded, Brian’s furious, I’m permanently off the Free Babysitter list, and Evan and Chloe declared me their Fancy Aunt. I’m booking my next spa trip. Without kids. And definitely on someone else’s Fun Card. ----- #redditfamily #reddit #familyrelationships #redditstories
