35 Times Single Moms Took Their Entitlement To The Next Level And Got Shamed For It On This Facebook Group
Finding a good deal is a skill. Some people compile coupons, compare prices and scrape together any and all possible discounts, promotions, and other sales. But for every educated buyer, there is a person whose strategy boils down to “give me things because I said so.”
The “Single mom is not a coupon code” Facebook group documents and shares all the unhinged encounters sellers have had with women who tried to leverage motherhood into free stuff. So get ready to roll your eyes as you scroll through and be sure to upvote your favorites. And don’t forget to comment your own “choosing beggar” stories below.

"My daughter wants to learn violine, so give me your Stradivari, bitchh!"
How does the logic work when the person politely declines and the beggar insults them. 'Oh, sorry, now that you put it like that, yes, I realise I am an a*****e and tell you what - you can have the car I was selling for free!'
It’s called ‘contraceptive’ lady, you can’t just have kids and expect to rave like you’re in your early 20s chewing your face off like a zombie 😆 you grow the f**k up when you have kids. (I chose raves, parties and drugs over kids, I don’t believe having both is responsible, I was also raised by idiots like this, kids need responsible parents not party animals.)
"I'm poly and he's mono" is one way of saying, "I cheated on him & got caught."
I'm not sure I'd trust anyone to watch an infant for $40/day, over 12 hours a day.
So far with this thread, the first thing I’ll be doing is going to court to make sure they pay child support
Honestly - it is not a very bad deal. It is not like she offered 500 or 1000. Usually, people will try to underbid a bit - that is how the marketplace works. Don't like her manipulating it, further down the story. Don't like his reaction either. Yet,basically, wanting 3000 and getting 2500 ( in cash) offered is not that entitled.
My gf and I are moving 14 hours away and selling things we don’t need or don’t care about to fund the gas. I had to beg her to send me a screenshot. She was MUCH nicer than I would have been. I wanted to screenshot this group name. Lol. Y’all ruined me. jk I’m here cause I’m already a kindred spirit. But the audacity. 200 dollar frame. 30 bucks.
Oh. For my gfs privacy. I cropped her. She explained why it’s 30. And said if no one buys sure. Single moms response?
“K” lol
I don't see how this is entitled. It's a bedframe being offered for $30 and she's just simply asking if she could have it for free for her kids. When told, basically, no unless no one buys it, she didn't clap back with insults like the rest of these posts. She just said ok.
If you don't have much money why not use reusable cloth nappies like they used to in the olden days I know it's a pain in the a**e washing cloth nappies but it's cheaper and environmentally friendlier.
"This morning I learned that I am 9 months pregnant." How??? castle-nat...9eb8ef.gif
I don't think this is trying. They have just put it out there that they would like a bike. Not asking for the fanciest one. Someone may have. The right size bike hanging around in a garage that they are happy to donate.
As long as there is no manipulation, I don't have a problem with people asking for help. As long as they can accept a no without playing on one's feelings - there is no entitlement.
I don't think this is too bad. She's just asking for a working laptop, not the latest top-of-the-range model. I don't see this as any different to when I posted on Freecycle asking if anyone had a satellite receiver they no longer needed. We'd moved into a new house and the previous owners had left their satellite dish, so I thought I'd try to make use of it.
I don’t see why this one is up here. This mom isn’t asking for a FREE house nor an extremely low rent. This shouldn’t be on this list.
I agree this list is pitiful. Some of these women deserve the shame BUT there are MANY THAT DO NOT!!!!
My Grubhub driver tonight. With my luck she’s gonna pop on my food or in my driveway or right before she gets here.
This sounds more like a hardworking mom than a choosing beggar. You have to be pretty hard up to be grubhubbng at night 9 months pregnant with a toddler. At least give her a decent tip instead of trashing her efforts.
Look how disgusting this is.  fully able-bodied woman who can work for money, exploiting her children like that.
The misspellings could be deliberate, but sheehs the fact that she's standig up straight doesn't mean she's fully able-bodied. You don't know someone's story. I understand where you're coming from but calling someone disgusting is harsh.
some of these aren't choosing beggars at all, some of these are just sad :(
I was just about to say, a lot of these are just to the point begging, and I'm like, am I supposed to laugh here? Cringe? Because neither happens, I just feel sad for them.
Load More Replies...Some of these people look like they are actually struggling like the person asking for pants for her son. I'm not saying everyone is being honest and obviously some are really bad but some do seem genuine. Not everyone who asks for help is a choosing beggar
Some people miss the point of choosing beggars. People in need who beg for help are not automatically choosing beggars. They're just beggars and it's sad that for example single moms have to beg for childcare so they can work because no affordable child care is available for them. Or when people have to beg for food and clothing. The choosing part is infuriating, but that's when people decline reasonable options they don't like and/or ask for luxuries they don't need.
