The line comes from the Futurama episode Attack of the Killer App, which first aired in 2010, where Fry is desperate to buy a new eyePhone. A screenshot of Fry holding out his cash became one of the show's most shared reaction images, and the audio version spread later on meme pages and soundboards. It stays popular because the situation never changes, with new games, phones and collectibles constantly giving fans a reason to reuse it as the universal sound of impulse buying.
