(NEW YORK) A 4-year-old Brooklyn boy bought about $2,600 worth of SpongeBob Squarepants popsicles using his mom’s credit card.

Noah Bryant, who is reportedly obsessed with the boisterous sea sponge, ordered 918 popsicles after he snuck into his mom’s Amazon account. They were delivered to his auntie’s house in 51 cases, according to an Instagram post from a colleague of his mother Jennifer.

Jennifer Bryant is working toward her master’s degree in social work at New York University and was put in a tough financial situation when Amazon refused to take back or refund the purchase.

Katie Schloss, a classmate of her’s, set up a GoFundMe page that quickly recouped the losses and then some.

The campaign has generated $6,512 in donations, as of Thursday.

Schloss says the extra money will all go toward childcare costs for Noah.
