Budget Betty Presents “How To Travel On A Budget” Featuring Budget Betty · Budget Betty

I’m Budget Betty.  I’m a feisty, fun and frugal lady who loves to pinch pennies and cheeks.  One thing I don’t love is wasting money.  But I absolutely love to travel.  I rent a Budget Car every year and road trip it to Florida for Spring Break.  I love the weather and I love a good party!  I can really boogie.  I usually travel with my best friend Delores.  She likes to save money too and she helped me make this video.  Watch it to see how we do it!  Remember: the more money you save the more trips you can take.  By the way, you’re adorable.  I could pinch those cheeks all day!  Love, Budget Betty

Betty (and Delores), Thanks for the really nice comment on our page, and for the great video (I laughed aloud twice and practically woke my wife up to make her watch it with me). So what program do you use, how long did it take you to make that, etc? E-mail us at philwork@insightbb.com and/or vote for our videos at http://www.mintertainment.com/videos/video/A_Multiple-TicTac_Moment and ramada.com if you get a chance. Thanks, Betty! The Philman and Family

Yes!!! It's the most entertaining that I've seen!!!!

Yaaaay - June 25th @ 8:53 pm 54321

LOL!!! Great job!!!!! Best vid!!!!

bvbf - June 25th @ 3:35 pm 54321

There are some really great videos but of the few I consider the best this is the only one that didn't go the music video route. That's why it's my favorite. She's a crazy and funny character in a weird world where sandwiches drive, vegetables are cute guys, and grandma's party in Daytona! That's a good world.

snackycakes - June 25th @ 10:57 am 54321

budget betty.... just "budget betty". that's all i have to say.

bettin' on betty - June 23rd @ 4:34 pm 54321

sound production, but obnoxious character. gets old fast (before the vid is even over, I'd had enough of her)

greg - June 23rd @ 3:27 pm 21321

I see a Betty and Delores in a "Budget Betty Budget Bus" (sponsored by Budget, of course) driving across America and giving budget tips to people in small and big towns alike. She could "broadcast" from new locations each week and Budget could run it on their website. Just my two cents. I know Betty likes pennies.

Nicolette - June 23rd @ 12:47 pm 32121

viva la betty!!! best vid, hands down.

MissyP - June 23rd @ 8:42 am 54321

It had some good ideas but I don't know.

Eric - June 23rd @ 1:45 am 32121

hilarious! and informative - 400 sandwiches an hour!

mags - June 22nd @ 8:08 pm 43211

Go Betty, it's your birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very funny. This girl is talented.

armyan - June 22nd @ 11:18 am 54321

Even the people who don't like this video say it's "clever" and "funny" and that Betty is an SNL-caliber character. I agree. You could see a series of commercials featuring Betty giving budget tips and advice. It would be hilarious. Great work Betty. Five stars.

Comedy Lover - June 21st @ 10:32 pm 54321

One of the better ones, with a character that could be used more than once.

p byers - June 21st @ 7:50 pm 43211

Budget Betty is a riot!!! Our family just loved her enthusiasm and clever ideas. We were all LOL!!! Best to Budget Betty.

The Walbergs - June 21st @ 3:13 pm 54321

funny, but that's because the character has been done, on SNL

Joanna - June 21st @ 8:16 am 21321

Hilarious!!!!! Budget Betty is awesome!!

becky - June 19th @ 3:03 pm 54321

This is great. Keep it real Budget Betty.

b'z - June 19th @ 3:03 pm 54321

Hysterical and wonderfully creative!

Kim - June 19th @ 3:02 pm 54321

This is a memorable character and a LOL funny video. It's also super creative. Great work. Team Betty!

RandiM - June 17th @ 5:45 pm 54321

I'm sorry, this is a little clever, but just annoying as all get out. I had to stop. Good characterization, but a character that I could not care about. sorry.

Capt. Blackfoot - June 17th @ 5:36 pm 14321

I don't care for the controversy over whether this is a 'professional' piece or not. What matters to me is the content, and even though I'm in the contest too, I think this is the best video submitted. It may be in-your-face and some may find it annoying, but this is my brand of humor. Excellent job and best of luck!

ralphm3 - June 17th @ 9:44 am 54321

you are a very good editor! my pug thinks your dog is quite cute. thanks for watching and commenting on my video. good luck

travi - June 16th @ 8:36 pm 54321

This was obviously not done by a film company. it's kitschy and unique but clearly homemade. good job but I'm biased towards the one I submitted. (i think mine's the best). :-P i see u also shot at venice beach like last summer roadtrip). best of luck. I think some contestants are giving 1 star votes to their competitors.

alexplank - June 16th @ 12:57 pm 32121

Start the bidding at $25,000 plus a contract. Great Video-very creative.

Bear - June 15th @ 7:36 pm 54321

Good Job Betty! You uploaded your video that answers the question: How do you travel on a budget? Everyone did good work, but over half the videos didn't answer the question. So, is this worth $25,000? YES, YES, YES!

Will - June 15th @ 7:05 pm 54321

A producer for Spike TV..... sounds pretty official to me http://twopeasinyourpod.com/cast.htm

Yes I Am Envious - June 15th @ 4:21 pm 32121

LOL funny and fast-moving. Nice work!

boobookitty - June 15th @ 3:07 pm 54321

Way to go girl!! Sounds like a few people have a little Budget Betty video envy!!!!!!!

lm - June 15th @ 2:27 pm 54321

I'm flattered you guys think this was done by a film company. I'm Budget Betty and created this video with a friend who had never shot a video camera before. I gave him a quick lesson and we shot everything in one day. I talked my neighbors into being the fruits and vegetables. We had a blast. I edited the piece myself. It was the first time I'd ever edited something from start to finish. It took me about 35 hours as I made every mistake in the book. Also, I do a comedy podcast but we don't get paid to do it. Not yet anyway! Thanks everyone for the great feedback. I'm really enjoying everyone's entries. Best, Ann Marie

Ann Marie - June 15th @ 12:21 pm 32121

Ann Marie - June 15th @ 12:08 pm 32121

This is a film company so it should be disqualified

TR - June 15th @ 5:00 am 14321

Budget Betty could be used for a series of commercials. Great energy and creativity. Two thumbs way up!

Philip - June 14th @ 3:06 pm 54321

This is hilarious =) Great job.

NadiaElaine - June 14th @ 11:44 am 43211

I love the little driving sandwich. This video is super creative.

Grace - June 14th @ 10:45 am 32121

Unfair advantage by an already established film company.

PO - June 13th @ 10:36 pm 14321

Orange green screen video makes baby Jesus cry.

David - June 13th @ 10:27 pm 32121

This is kind of unfair because this is made by professinals from their show on Twopeasinyourpod.com

TR - June 13th @ 7:11 pm 14321

YES, this video is worth $25,000 if not more. Being over-the-top, is much better than not enough. Its easier to tone down something than to build up from nothing. Good Job!

Jennifer - June 13th @ 5:21 pm 54321

This was a cute idea, but a little too crazy and frantic for my tastes. There were some great tips and nice little touches in there, but the woman was really annoying. Maybe that was what you were going for, but you want your viewers to keep watching, not have them stop the video because the woman annoys them. It started out good, but it just got too frantic and grating for me. Great try....keep it up.

Melissa - June 13th @ 12:11 pm 32121

Really nice job. I could see big cardboard Betty's at Budget locations. She'd be a funny spokesperson for them.

Warren H. - June 13th @ 11:35 am 54321

Budget Betty is K-R-A-Z-Y and I love it!

Erick - June 13th @ 12:32 am 54321

love it!!!!!!

kim - June 12th @ 9:38 pm 54321

This was hilarious! Awesome job guys! Sherri O Terri references are a big much.

Ben G - June 12th @ 9:25 pm 54321

Most people who are actually "Bettys" age tend to get really offended by skits like this. This ad had a lot of work put into it but the target audience is kids who aren't old enough to drive yet.

deb - June 12th @ 7:49 pm 21321

bettylovah - June 12th @ 6:36 pm 54321

Wow, you blew me away. So much quality, good work, and helpful info. Great dance moves Betty. Your one cool Grandma!

doug - June 12th @ 6:24 pm 54321

Everyone in my dorm room was laughing out loud. We hope to see you in Daytona next sping break, Budget Betty. Cool video!

BC - June 12th @ 6:03 pm 54321

haha...amazing how Betty in such good shape for how many sandwiches she eats..must be the super size fruits & veggies.. Funny video

Tyler - June 12th @ 5:53 pm 54321

Now thats real talent! Hope to see more Budget Betty. Break a leg, kiddo!

lily - June 12th @ 5:43 pm 54321

lol way funny... Budget Betty is so cute!

nicki - June 12th @ 5:32 pm 54321

buget betty totally rocks! you got my vote!

rachel - June 12th @ 5:25 pm 54321

My wife and I have been watching all of these videos. And there are some really good cute ones. But this is the definitely the winner. Good luck Budget Betty!

Pete - June 12th @ 5:21 pm 54321

This is great, refreshing, and exciting! Betty could have her own show. Like "Man vs. Wild". Except its "Budget Betty: Tips on saving money". Good Job!

Harold Halloway - June 12th @ 5:12 pm 54321

clever, clever...Budget Betty is #1!

Mars - June 12th @ 4:58 pm 54321

Way to go Betty! You have great character, helpful advice, and funny jokes. Would like to see what Budget Betty would do on a national commercial. Best of luck. Hope you win the $25,000.

Tate - June 12th @ 4:50 pm 54321

America needs Budget Betty!!! Awesome video!!

bbgrl - June 12th @ 3:22 pm 54321

lot of work put in there.

Rusty - June 12th @ 2:38 pm 54321

annoying.......It's the pitch of her voice......like nails on a chalkboard

star*50 - June 12th @ 2:30 pm 14321

You go girl!! Luvin Budget Betty!!!! What a RIDE!!!!!!!!

sassy - June 12th @ 2:27 pm 54321

Cool but freaky!

p - June 12th @ 1:55 pm 14321

Budget Betty is one energetic lady! She is action packed!! She looks like a winner to me. Budget needs a spokesperson like Budget Betty.

sunshine - June 12th @ 12:49 pm 54321

well edited but my eyes glazed over half way through. wayyyyyy to wordy. sometimes less is more.

dean y - June 12th @ 10:33 am 21321

A really well put together video, the fruit of the loom guys were a little much.

Sarah - June 12th @ 9:07 am 21321

This is hilarious!

rmoore3 - June 12th @ 6:52 am 54321

Very, very good.....BUT, yo, I still prefer "Betty's" former work as the controversial pea pod gansta rapper here: http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/bb6fe2d196

LL Legume J - June 12th @ 5:43 am 54321

made us crack up! totally loved the dancing Budget Betty

delaneycouple - June 12th @ 5:09 am 54321

Didn't get boring once!

f matthews - June 12th @ 4:35 am 54321

lol. that was a great video. Very professional looking.

Aaron - June 11th @ 11:38 pm 54321

too frantic and too judge judy.

L yeah - June 11th @ 11:07 pm 14321

Budget Betty is AWESOME!

nikki b - June 11th @ 11:00 pm 54321

haha! Funny!

joey - June 11th @ 10:52 pm 54321

wicked funny.

mike beaudoin - June 11th @ 9:42 pm 54321

WoW! Budget Betty could be a campaign ad for Budget. I watch all of these videos and this one definitely tops them all. You got my vote Betty.

Hamilton Steele - June 11th @ 8:36 pm 54321

This was awesome! I thinktot Budget Betty should run this company! She rocks! Totally worth $25,000!!!

Scott Vinci - June 11th @ 8:23 pm 54321

Betty, you are something else! I'm giving you five stars because (a) a TON of work went into this, (b) you drive a VW and (c) you use a Mac. It was very clever, extremely smart (maybe too smart for the masses?) and a little frantic. I missed a bunch of stuff the first couple times through. Delores is fantastic. Her scene in the ghost story section is Oscar-worthy. You've definitely spiced up the contest in the home stretch here. Best of luck, Betty!

Simon Cowell - June 11th @ 6:59 pm 54321

Very SNL! Funny video!

rory - June 11th @ 6:51 pm 32121

Lots of work went into this video!! Good luck to Budget Betty!!!

flgal - June 11th @ 6:35 pm 54321

Oh My! It's terrific. I'd love to go road tripping with Budget Betty! What's better than a crazy woman, a dog, a BLT and a bunch of fruit? A rental car..heh heh. It's definately worth it. I can see Budget Betty as your spokesperson!

Kudra - June 11th @ 6:32 pm 54321

Isn't this Cheri Oteri doing the crazed "Collette Reardon" skit from SNL? I believe this vid gave me ADD if thats possible.

JB - June 11th @ 6:24 pm 32121

Great concept. Elder experienced woman, that cares. Betty gives helpful advice to all ages.

Ryan - June 11th @ 6:15 pm 54321

Betty's great!!! She knows how to travel on a BUDGET!!!

Sandy - June 11th @ 6:11 pm 54321

I love Betty and Delores!!!!!!!!!!

Gabble27 - June 11th @ 5:40 pm 54321

cute but too long and frenzied

PH - June 11th @ 5:29 pm 21321

Can you make a better video? Do it, upload it! You could win!
