In case you missed it, Black Friday sales were popping off over the weekend and people all over the world were throwing their hard-earned cash at all the sales being offered by what seemed like every online retailer. I bought nothing. Mainly because I misjudged my bank account but at least it stopped me from parting with any money on these sales. Some people, however—11,248 people, to be exact—literally paid money for absolutely nothing, thanks to a superbly troll-erific offer by the team at Cards Against Humanity.

For their Black Friday offer, CAH simply asked customers to pay $5, with the promise of absolutely nothing in return. They raked in an impressive $71,145 in profit and, instead of donating this to charity, as they have done in the past, they’ve announced on their blog that they’re keeping it all for themselves. And just to prove it, each staff member has detailed exactly what they’re going to do with your cash (although you’ll be pleased to know that everyone does actually donate ~some~ funds to their chosen charity). Check out some of the breakdown below and head to their site to see the full shopping list.
