Nice of him to consider what's convenient for her.

In perfect revenge form, Maria packed four glass jars full of every penny of her ex's $95 and included a note that says "Here's every cent of your $95. Have fun at prom :)."

All hail the Queen of Petty.

"What he did wasn't okay so, I thought of a harmless way to mess around," Maria said of how she got the idea to return his money in this way.

Apparently, her and her ex are compatible in this area because Maria told us that he reacted to the refund by posting a picture of the money, calling her "a crazy ass ex", and wait for it... posting a picture of the new girl he's taking to prom posing with the jars of pennies.

Oof.

Since posting the stunt, she said other people think "it's beyond funny and petty."
