''Magical Disappearing Money'' is a 1974 short about saving money at the supermarket, as explained by a witch to a crowd of shoppers. It is notable for the witch, heir to Film/MrBNatural (according to the guys at ''Podcast/{{RiffTrax}}'').

----

!! The short provides examples of:
* AndThatsTerrible: The witch has this attitude towards processed food.
* BerserkButton: Processed food and fancy packages for the Witch.
-->'''Kevin Murphy:''' Her hatred of fanciness will '''NOT''' be over-estimated!
* {{Satan}}: The Witch has hints of this, and the Podcast/{{RiffTrax}} treatment milks this for all they're worth.
-->'''Mike Nelson:''' (as the Witch): '''JOIN ME IN THE ABYSS OF SAVINGS'''!
* StatingTheSimpleSolution: Botched pretty stupidly throughout the short. To name one example, instead of buying Mexican seasoned rice, the witch points out that you can buy plain rice instead and save money! Unless you put seasoned rice in the cart because ''[[CaptainObvious you wanted Mexican rice]]'', in which case you'll have to spend more money buying the seasonings separately.
* TheScrooge: The witch's outlook on grocery shopping is to buy raw materials and cook it yourself the way you want. Of ''everything''. Including ''milk'', which she recommends powdered (widely held to taste quite vile in comparison to fresh milk), and who needs pudding cups when you can make pudding in a bowl - which is ''so'' handy when you put it in a lunch bag.
* TakeThat: To processed foods (especially frozen ones) in the actual short.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: The vanishing store attendant is probably still in Hell.
