List of Scams

Below is a list of scams that the Eds - and other characters - have created throughout the series.

The majority of the scams were failures but there were a few semi-failures, in which a profit was made but the scam was either abandoned or destroyed. Full successes have occurred as well, but only on rare occasions.

Season 1

  • Serial Toucher Catcher
    Overview: The Eds try to catch the thief who was, supposedly, stealing various items from the kids.
    Profit: A jar full of quarters.
    Success/Failure: The Eds get a jar full of quarters and buy jawbreakers, but Jonny comes rolling down a hill and knocks the Eds' jawbreakers out of their mouths, forcing the Eds to chase after them.
    Episode: The Ed-Touchables
  • En-O-Gee Drinks
    Overview: The cliché roadside lemonade stand.
    Profit: None.
    Failure: Ed accidentally breaks the stand with his clumsy bulk and spills the drink.

  • The Ed Show

    Episode: Over Your Ed
  • Soda Bottle Refund (the real name of the scam is unknown)
    Overview: Ed goes dumpster diving for recyclables to exchange for change.
    Profit: Unknown.
    Success: This was one of the few scams that worked (although admittedly it didn't involve the kids). The Eds got several bottles but got distracted on the way to get their profit. It is likely they returned to finish this scam after the episode ended.
    Episode: Dawn of the Eds
  • Paper Routes
    Overview: The Eds deliver newspapers around the neighborhood to earn money.
    Profit: Unknown. The Eds successfully completed at least one of their routes and were still shown to be employed at the end of the episode, so they may have gotten some pay.
    Semi-failure: Eddy ordered an overwhelming amount of papers that they couldn't effectively deliver, and Edd's newspaper machine went haywire, firing stray papers all over the neighborhood. To make things worse, several short unexpected summer rains at the end of the episode made all the stray papers soggy and unreadable, and the Eds had to ensure that the papers were in good condition upon delivery if they were to get paid for them.
    Episode: Read All About Ed
  • Ed's Buses
    Overview: Have the kids pay to ride a cardboard bus pulled by Ed down to the Candy Store.

    Episode: Look Into My Eds
  • Wrestling Match (the real name of the scam is unknown)
    Overview: The Eds wrestle the Kankers. (This was a spur of the moment challenge from the Kankers, so it is never revealed whether the kids were charged.)
    Profit: Unknown.
    Semi-failure: The kids are given no reason to ask for a refund, but they were never shown paying to see the fight. The Eds were easily defeated.

    Overview: The Eds take your pets (or Rolf's farm animals) and have them groomed for you.

    Episode: Flea-Bitten Ed
  • Ed's Lawn Mowing Service
    Overview: To mow everyone's lawn for cash.
    Profit: Unknown. We never see any customers, but Eddy is satisfied with the results in a way that suggests that they will be paid after returning Victor.
    Semi-failure: The Eds successfully get Victor back to Rolf but get stuck with him in a mud pit, where Victor tried to eat their hair (and Edd's hat). The Eds might have gotten their payment after they were freed from Victor.
    Episode: Keeping up with the Eds
  • Ed-Land
    Overview: A small carnival assembled with cheap rides made of various items.
    Profit: None.
    Failure: Eddy flew off the Lawn Chair Carousel and broke Kevin's window. When Kevin angrily demanded to know who broke his window, Eddy told him a lie about "Mucky Boys," which spread through the neighborhood and led the other kids to go on a hunt for the Mucky Boys. Upon witnessing this, the scam was abandoned so the Eds could pretend to be the Mucky Boys and not get caught in a lie.

    Failure: Eddy didn't like the ideas presented to him by Jonny and Jimmy.
    Episode: Stuck in Ed
  • Jimmy's Super Duper Scammy Whammy
    Overview: Made by Jimmy and the Eds, the idea was to sell jumbo-sized ice pops to the kids.
    Profit: About 6 piggy banks full of dollars and quarters.
    Failure/Success: Surprisingly a joint failure and success. It was a failure because Eddy didn't like the idea and rejected it. However, it was a success because Jimmy pressed on despite Eddy's rejection and made a humongous profit.
    Episode: Stuck in Ed
  • Eddy's Career Counselling
    Overview: A center for the kids to take a career aptitude test and receive their results.
    Profit: Several quarters.
    Success: Everyone but Kevin wanted a career and was generally satisfied with the results, at least to the extent that nobody asked for a refund and the kids were later seen performing their jobs around the neighborhood. The Eds got jawbreakers, but they were locked away by Nazz, whose career was a dentist.

  • Ed's Summer Water Time Fun Park
    Overview: A 30 ft. tall waterslide.
    Profit: None.
    Failure: Ed ran into Eddy on the waterslide, and the force of the resulting collision caused the waterslide to collapse. Everyone was sleeping for school, anyway, so it had no chance of succeeding.
    Episode: Out with the Old, In with the Ed
  • Eds' Super Sweets
    Overview: Fake desserts.
    Profit: Probably a quarter from Jimmy.
    Failure: The Eds "creamhorn" made from a bowling pin wrecked Jimmy's teeth (leading to his signature retainer) and caused Sarah to beat them up. Sarah also probably procured a refund.
    Episode: Every Which Way But Ed
    Note: This scam occurred in a flashback that took place before the series began.
  • Bottomwess Ed
    Overview: People pay money to watch Ed devour a television set.
    Profit: 50 cents.
    Semi-failure: Edd paid double to see it, sure that Ed couldn't accomplish the task, but Ed indeed devoured the television, so the duo of Ed and Eddy kept his money. However, Ed ate Eddy along with the TV.
    Episode: Every Which Way But Ed
    Notes: This scam occurred in a flashback that took place before the series began. It also appears to be the first scam that Eddy ever pulled.
  • Mole Mutant Repellent
    Overview: Selling overripe bananas and stale hot dog buns to the kids to repel the Mole Mutants.
    Profit: A jar full of quarters.
    Semi-failure: Everybody bought the goods, but Ed ended up throwing the jar of quarters into the sewer. Eddy was prepared to go into the sewer to get the money back, but Ed forbade him, believing that some of the Mole Mutants had survived.
    Episode: Boom Boom Out Goes the Ed
  • Where Babies Come From
    Overview: Eddy teaches Sarah and Jimmy where babies come from.
    Profit: None.

    Episode: I Am Curious Ed
  • Egghead Ed
    Overview: Have Ed help with homework.
    Profit: A jar full of quarters.

    Episode: Too Smart for His Own Ed
  • Pet the Bunnie
    Overview: Edd dresses up as a bunny and people can pay to pet him.
    Profit: Unknown (probably none).
    Success: Eddy only did the scam to get back at Edd for his overbearing attitude. As the "scam" led to Edd being heavily petted by Ed, it can be considered a success, as Eddy got what he wanted out of it, even if he likely made no profits.
    Episode: Who's Minding the Ed?
  • Peach Creek Junior High Tattler Scandal (Tabloid Paper)
    Overview: Eddy, under the pen name Bobby Blabby, wrote scandalous articles in the school newspaper about the kids. Ed then sold the papers for a quarter apiece.
    Profit: A ton of quarters.
    Failure: Edd commandeered the money, as the newspaper was a nonprofit organization, and the angry kids exposed Eddy as "Bobby Blabby" and forced him to join the knitting club. Jonny was the only one actually satisfied.
    Episode: Truth or Ed
  • Feed the Unicorn

    Episode: Tinker Ed
  • Fairy Tales are Real
    Overview: Jimmy acts like he has become a cynic to trick the Eds into doing things to try and snap him out of it.
    Profit: A quarter and the joy of seeing the Eds humiliated.
    Success: Jimmy was able to lure Eddy into a trap, tricking him into providing a refund and dressing up as a fairy tale creature (along with his friends).
    Episode: Tinker Ed
    Note: This is not one of the Eds' scams.
  • Eddenheim Historical Museum
    Overview: After finding a book called Fort Peach Creek, the Eds learned that Eddy's ancestors were the founders of Peach Creek. With this in mind, Eddy decided to try and wring some respect out of his forefathers' stature.
    Profit: None.
    Failure: Nobody cared, even after the Eds hijacked Kevin's TV to tell everyone about it. Their failure was compounded by the Kankers revealing that their ancestor, Lord Kanker, won Peach Creek from Eddy's ancestor in a gambling match.
    Episode: A Town Called Ed

    Note: This scam may be considered non-canon because it occurred as part of a crossover event.
  • Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show Scam
    Overview: The viewer doesn't see the scam, thus it remains a mystery what took place or what was sold/offered. It goes so horribly wrong that the kids hunt down the Eds in an act of revenge. Various items left in the aftermath included balloons, oil, an overturned ice cream truck, at least one bear-trap, a broken record player, quick-dry cement, a skateboard, a bowling ball, a canoe, a busted water-pipe, a fence that had paint splattered around an outline of Nazz (in an evasive position), and a stand, where Eddy most likely was at the start of the whole event, crushed by a tree. The lane is seemingly destroyed. At one point in the movie, Eddy expresses remorse about pressing a button that had supposedly started the chain of events that led to the scam's failure.
    Profit: Unknown.
    Failure: Eddy pressed a red button that caused the disaster (according to Edd). The kids suffered some of the most painful injuries of their lives. The Eds flee the Cul-de-Sac for the rest of the movie as the kids hunt them down. The Eds blame each other completely for the scam.
    Episode: Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show

Games

  • Snow Cones
    Overview: The Eds make snow cones and sell them for cash.
    Profit: None.
    Failure: Ed ate them all, and because the snow cones were made by a meat grinder, the snow cones absorbed the meat flavor.

    Note: In the GBA version of the game, the failure for the scam is different; there, the ice melted before they could use it.
