anyone else watched this . based on true events
i really enjoyed it although i'm still not sure how they made so much money
maybe i wasn't paying enough attention
actually laughed out loud at the shit scene
it's on netflix

I watched it 😁
I thought it was very entertaining.

They didn't really show the real story.
In the movie they had a load of coupons sent to them from Mexico.
Coupon for $20 of toilet roll, sell the coupon for $10, the person gets the coupon and gets $20 worth of toilet roll for $10 effectively.
Spread that over different products, washing powder, bags of dog food, nappies (diapers i Suppose) etc. and sell thousands of coupons and the money would roll in pretty quick.
Imagine someone standing outside Pets At Home with a coupon for £50 worth of free dog food, they want £20 for the coupon.. I'd buy it.

The real story was worth $40Million! That's a lot of coupons. 🤣

I watched this and really enjoyed it

Is this a film or series?

It's a film. I forget how long it was, not very, under 2 hours I think. Well worth it.
