I've never seen Chad just disappear into his mind before. The trauma on his face was kind of hilarious. Sad, but funny.

[@junkets5708]

dude i've never seen chad so bewildered, he is just stunned this whole video lmfao

[@jat9926]

This was TAME. There’s a lady that makes lasagna in the dishwasher WITH DIRTY DISHES and another who steals her families belongings to “re Gift” them back at Christmas

[@DisorientedWanderer]

I feel like each one is awful in their own unique way but for some reason this family just made me uncomfortable

[@sunnyday6133]

Nikki is uneasy, Chad is lost in a sea of horror.

[@mavisbeacon6770]

That's full on child abuse :(

[@That_Doctor_Del_Fella]

I definitely feel awful for the kids. They didn't sign up for that lunacy.

[@bungiecrimes7247]

Nah you just hate poor people.

[@MrEsphoenix]

The ironic thing with all these cheapskate video's is the people are really inefficient at actually saving money. They do a lot of things that just cause inconvenience and discomfort without saving money and don't bother learning any basic bush craft that may be useful. There are people who live perfectly comfortably off grid and without money but they educate themselves on how to live off the land and work hard to enjoy basic comforts. It's like these people get more joy out of how hard they make life for themselves than actually saving money.

[@hoodwynk1389]

The expression of pure despair

[@ST7V6N]

The homie chad was purely traumatized by this one lmao

[@DisorientedWanderer]

The egg thing is legit if I remember correctly. Unwashed can last weeks without needing to be kept in a fridge. You just gotta make sure to clean them well before use. But if you're in a situation where you got a working fridge, just clean them. Cleanliness is next to godliness and these people are DIRTY.

[@homesteadlegion4419]

Its true, eggs are sold like that in the eu and they last about 3 weeks at room temperature. Has to do with the natural protection of the egg, if you wash them you destroy that layer and need to refrigerate them.

[@gunkid6368]

stuff like this is almost always caused by some form of extreme trauma same thing with hoarders. living in discomfort to pinch pennies is never worth it creature comforts are easily worth the cost when they can have such deep impacts on your quality of life. and the mindset that using something you bought is wasting it never makes sense when i can just say you are wasting air if you aren't holding it in for 30 seconds before you exhale

[@gnarlynikki]

If disposable money is available, I definitely agree.

[@gunkid6368]

@@gnarlynikki yea she said she has the money thats what makes it so wild i live in a trailer park and on one side we have neighbors with a beautiful lawn wonderful garden and a nice clean trailer meanwhile the neighbors on the other side have 3 dogs 3 cats 4 kids 3 adults siding missing grass up tall junk everywhere screaming all the time i guess my point is it is definitely a reality that people are this poor while she chooses to live that way but seriously people its 1 million percent worth it to get nice toilet paper

[@Triple-Four]

My dad and his siblings used to share bath water as well because they were borderline homeless. This was back in the late 60's, early 70's. My dad was 9 years old cooking dinner for everyone while his dad worked all day and night and he had to cut an acre of grass with a push mower every week before he was 10 years old. They also had the "delicious" breakfast of rice in water as their cereal (yes they were struggling that bad) and my dad ended up dropping out of middle school so he could get a job to help since he was the oldest so i can understand being a cheapskate to a degree. I never had to go through any of that or worry if i'm gonna eat because my parents and siblings always made sure to take care of us so we didn't have to go through what they did.

[@DavidStruveDesigns]

There's a huge difference between sharing water because you live in a water-poor area of the world, or maybe you're far too poor for the water bills in areas _with_ plenty of fresh water supply, and sharing water simply because you're too cheap to pay the water bill in an area with abundant or at least unlimited water supply. It can be _extremely_ difficult to properly manage water supplies in water-poor areas, and so reusing the same water for multiple uses is a smart way to go. Earthships use this technique to stay "off-grid" and independent. You use the same water to shower/bathe, then perhaps to water plants, and finally any left over is used to flush toilets. There's a reason you can buy special toilets these days that have a sink on top that drains directly into the toilet cistern. It's a clever idea and really every house should do this!

[@codygates7418]

Omg as a fellow Southern hillbilly these are the reasons there are slurs and stereotypes about us 🙄 wtf is this lmao 🤣 Also I 100% get you Nikki. My mom and I watch TLC together (I’m a male high school student but am super close to my mom) and the amount of times I’ve almost thrown up watch the “bathing scenes” during My 600 Pound Life is to many to count.

[@DisorientedWanderer]

I just started watching that show the other day and I have to wonder why they always put the camera at such awkward angles. Completely unnecessary to put the camera at crotch level.

[@That_Doctor_Del_Fella]

When I was growing up my grandmother had a complete collection of Cool Whip containers that she used like Tupperware and they worked like a charm.

[@gnarlynikki]

In my mamaw’s house it was Country Crock “butter” tubs. Never knew if it was going to be fake butter, leftovers, or treats. She even had one specifically to help me rinse my hair when I was little

[@emanymton713]

I still use leftover containers to store leftovers…

[@doesthislookunsure894]

This was worth it just for Chad's face xD

[@YFMstudios]

ive seen this and i wanted to throw up.that water is gonna give you all the eboli and diarrhea,also chad would've died of a heart attack if he had to have his tooth hammered out of his mouth

[@toms1313]

Not even 10 seconds in and i had the same reaction as Chad, paused the video and really had to think if i was going to unpause it.

[@Casual_Goof]

Oh no that ground fridge got to me. 55 degrees is way out of temp range for meat, and to keep it for a week?! Oh Lord. There’s ways to do a ground cellar/fridge correctly but that ain’t it. I understand doing what you got to, but still you got to do some things the right way or as close as possible.

[@DisorientedWanderer]

Yeah that crossed mind too. It seems they attempted to try a ground fridge but like most people where I live, they half assed it and will probably end up with some kind of illness down the road.

[@danielkano2197]

Chads rant at the end is fucking hysterical 🤣 😂 💀 😆 😭

[@CallumDowney]

Man the moment Chad started having that inturnal conflict I knew that it was just going to go even further downhill. And even though I don't live in the US (live in Canada) Nikki mention about the American health system and stuff hit hard. The amount of stuff I've heard about medical and dental stuff in the States I can understand when situations like the women did is somewhat normal in certain parts.

[@Triple-Four]

Yeah the american health system is really bad. I get $700 a year on dental insurance which is only enough to fix 2 teeth a year. I've had to get 14 teeth pulled because i couldn't afford $20,000 worth of dental work. They'll pull plenty of teeth but won't fix them all because of insurance.

[@CallumDowney]

@@Triple-Four Jesus, that's insane.

[@silverfoxjxt1532]

i ain’t ever seen chad act this way, and ion blame him 😐

[@Jazz-df3gv]

Thank you for reacting to my recommendation! Sorry for the trauma, but I wanted this to spread around because there were kids involved, and I was like wtf 😬 Hope you’re doing ok!

[@jat9926]

Now you traumatize Nate with this show

[@corym.m.3084]

TLC likes to fake some things or over exaggerate things. But I do agree with the dude with the hat. Unless they are standing on the side of the road asking for money, they are making enough to live comfortably, not like this. You don’t need high end appliances and Wi-Fi to live comfortably

[@dragonking2005]

That health care comment is spot on.... Look at what's happening with the Mr beast thing with him during blindness

[@danielkano2197]

I feel your pain Nikki. The tent part was rough...

*sarcasm* ON THIS EPISODE OF HOARDERS: Gnarly Nikki.

[@gnarlynikki]

LEAVE ME AND MY 92 EMPTY GLASS CONTAINERS ALONE. . .😅

[@kalindakelly3417]

All of this was commonplace when I grew up. lol. That was in the 60’s. They shouldn’t make those boys sleep w them. That’s weird. Only the little bitty kids shared a bath but I can see that if you’re poor the husband and wife might also. We had no central air or heat. We did have one small propane heater and at times we had an electric blanket. The den and kitchen were the warmest cause mom hung blankets in the doorways. My Louisiankinfolk used moss as toilet paper and ate things such as snake when needed. We flushed the toilet w the bath water. We have a lot of good memories and great resilience because of it.

[@bungiecrimes7247]

People buried food in the ground before fridges. Who tf you think we survived this long.

[@florenmage]

This is scary. I hope these people are lying to be on tv. T_T

[@brandong3469]

I'm from NYC, and I went on a camping trip with my friends church last year. There was this woman named Shelly, from Mississippi. She's really friendly, but she had this method of washing cups and dishes where she apparently just dipped them into a pot of dish water and dump it back into the pot to use on the next cup. She did this with my sister and said "trust me, it's clean. This is how we do it in the country, city girl."

[@sistermadrigalmorning233]

I am rolling at Chad's rant at the end 😂😂

[@Unchained74]

I've seen a few people react to this episode, but yours is by far the best. Chad's reaction is exactly the same as mine. No words!!! Lol!!

[@iansahleen1173]

Y’all should watch Daniel Dancer, History's Biggest Cheapskate by Sam O’Nella it’s absolutely nuts.

[@BeanColored]

Chads soul unsubscribed. I also had to share water with my family but luckily my ma got custody so I didn't have to be put through that and more.

[@aliaj98]

You know what I just realized they have electricity, they’re paying for electricity and not using it. You’re paying for it and not using it

[@gnarlynikki]

Their bill is probably superrrr low though

[@danielkano2197]

Love your content guys! This was a tough one.....

[@NegativeSnake]

I’d rather stay at the Sawyer Family house than those people

[@DavidStruveDesigns]

Yeah the ground fridge _does_ work, if it's done properly. For one you don't really want the door exposed to the outside like they have it. Ideally you have a concrete basement buried deeper in the ground, so there's ground _all around_ the room, and _then_ you store things inside, or inside a further cupboard or insulated box within the basement. Those are the original pantries. It's how things were done in the centuries before fridges were invented, and if you wanted to keep things frozen you filled up part of the room with ice and voila - a room-sized freezer! Some old estate properties around Europe still have "ice houses" on their land, and you'll find most of the usable part of the building is underground. It's actually why so many properties used to have basements in the first place, and why the kitchen was often located there (though usually seperated with thick stone walls) - close to the raw ingredients needed for cooking and it means you don't keep them out of the cool/cold air too long. Over the centuries those basements became smaller and then with more advanced building techniques became pantries that you could have in a ground-floor kitchen rather than a basement.

[@AndyPlaysAllNight]

If I remember right, there was an extreme cheapskates with a wrestler and showed him getting ready for a tryout and other stuff.

[@EngrishVT]

i'm so cheap i don't use toilet paper i use water it's free in my state lol, thanks for the video Chad and Nikki

[@OnyxTheGamingMachine]

Fyi, I don't think i've felt this bad for Chad in a LONG TIME

[@thomaslain3845]

I grew up in a lower income household, but this is ridiculous

[@epicrabid1857]

I wonder how much money they would save if they grew their own food

[@gnarlynikki]

Right? I know plenty of people that have awesome gardens.

[@anarchygod8691]

dude I love nikki 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣

[@jeramycurtis3872]

My big question is what are they saving money for tho?

[@TheycallmeHatGuy]

Good question

[@terryjohnson8974]

Heysoo this was not what i expected from this omfg . For other surprising people Oversimplified has a video of the emu war its 20000 emus wreaking havoc in Australia if ur bored

[@alexanderwolfsberg]

I love that Chad is traumatized while Nikki is just like ya I get this which is sad if she does truely get it cause no person should live like this no has to...this by choice I don't care how poor you are unless your homeless you shouldn't chiseling your teeth out

[@gnarlynikki]

Chad and I both grew up poor. I had a clean home and food in the kitchen… maybe not a lot food or the most nutritious, but I didn’t go without. I got free lunch from the public school that I went to as well. My Dad knows how to pinch a penny and so cutting corners is totally normal to me.Not sure what I would ever do if I had money because I never have. Chad has had more food insecurity than I ever had, literally not having food at times in his life. He’s talked about how Nate (from Renegade media group) would go out of his way to buy him food if they were hanging out because he knew Chad hadn’t had anything to eat. Thankfully we don’t have to survive that way anymore and things have been good for us. We have a dependable car, an apartment, food in our kitchen, and as you can see here- many items to bring us joy. We’re thankful for that, but we still digging our way up. This woman said she preferred to live like this like it was a “game”, but I’m not so sure. $1,000 a month goes quickly. I don’t think she should be blamed for having to take matters into her own hands with her teeth. It’s an incredibly sad thing to think about, but many folks can’t afford dental care. Until the past few years, Medicaid didn’t cover dental for adults. Healthcare in the US is bs & her knocking her own teeth out to save a buck is the truth poor people have to face.

[@iansahleen1173]

Cavemen had a higher standard of living than these people.

[@DevonRucker]

4:10 whyyyyy??? We dont need that story lol. Please your cool, i dont want you relating to TLC people

[@sandraschonberg8633]

am thinking shes sneakin quite a bit with food for herself......no?

[@thomasmontgomery805]

As a Canadian I would like to say I’m so sorry about the way your healthcare works it’s horrible

[@gnarlynikki]

It’s an incredibly sad thing to witness. Thankfully Medicaid/Medicare exists to cover expense for a lot of poor folks.
