Comedy writer Bette Bentley invented Skimpies, an organic cotton liner that sticks inside leggings and pants in place of underwear. According to Shopify, sales grew from $6,000 in the first year to $570,000 in the second without paid advertising. An eight-second TikTok video with nearly 7 million views doubled the company's lifetime sales overnight. Bentley then spent six months running daily three-hour TikTok Live sessions from her kitchen, and Shopify reported the company was valued at $10 million around the time of her Season 18 appearance in September 2026.
