Uh oh! This is a lotta food and a lotta trouble. A little 6-year-old boy in Michigan was playing with his dad's phone and spent $1000 on the GrubHub App. According to the parents, Keith and Kristin Stonehouse, they let their 6-year-old son, Mason, use the phone to play games. Instead, he went on a food spending spree on Grubhub. After the parents found out what he did, Mason was sent to bed. However, the food deliveries kept coming all night. At one point, Keith's bank even sent a fraud alert because the little guy spent $500 at Happy Pizza alone. The parents said they had to figure out the best way to show their son that food equals money. He will be reminded of this his whole life, as some of the deliveries were captured on their Ring doorbell!
