Series information
First appearance:	"Kracked Krabs"

Dwight T. Wad was a contestant for the Cheapest Crab Awards contest in the episode "Kracked Krabs" and was a supermarket manager in "Hello Bikini Bottom!"

History

He was one of the three finalists, along with Eugene H. Krabs and Huford BargainBottom. In his video submission, titled, "Tying up Loose Ends", he is seen in the restroom collecting stray pieces of toilet paper, and then tying them back onto the roll. His name is a pun on the word, "tightwad", which means someone who is really cheap.

Oddly, Dwight T. Wad was technically the only one whose video displayed cheapness (as cheapness is an unwillingness to part with money). Eugene H. Krabs and Huford BargainBottom's actions would be considered cheating money out of customers, while Dwight T. Wad was actually being cheap when he tied together the old toilet paper pieces, rather than throwing them away.
