Jojo Sim lets his girlfriend fill one basket, and viewers spot a gift-card loophole
The shopping short ran far ahead of his usual start, on a day his Halloween candy date night challenge also took off.

I Buy My Girlfriend Anything That Fits In This Basket… 😳
One basket, one rule. In Jojo Sim's newest short, "I Buy My Girlfriend Anything That Fits In This Basket… 😳", whatever she can squeeze inside is hers, and he pays. The title stops there, with a wide-eyed emoji, and the comments take over from it.
The idea viewers keep returning to is a loophole. Several of them, each on their own, suggest filling the basket with gift cards and coming back later for the bigger things. Another calls the challenge a dangerous financial glitch for whoever is paying. Others ask where the jewelry was, argue over whether a pair of blue pants should count, or say they would start with two phones. One simply wonders whether that was an elevator inside the store. The comment section is small for a channel this size, but it filled about three times faster than on his usual first day for a short.
That start is what makes the video stand out. Jojo Sim has more than 21 million subscribers, and his back catalog brings in millions of views every day, yet a new short of his usually opens far more quietly. This one was close to 370,000 views fifteen hours after it went up.
It had company. "How To Choose Halloween 🎃 Candy Date Night Challenge! 🎃", posted the same day, also ran well past his usual opening, a seasonal spin on the game-night format that fills his uploads. Around them sit a bite-counting challenge, a car reveal and a game of rock paper scissors he bills as the most interesting he has ever played. The channel added about 100,000 subscribers over the week.
