My SIL said she would host Christmas this year as she has a big new house and plenty of room for us all. I asked if I should bring something and she said she would just do a shop and split the cost. She did suggest we bring our own alcohol. I thought it was a little odd, as did my hubby but he reminded me that she was cheap and the food wouldn’t cost that much anyway! Best to just agree with it instead of making a fuss.
Anyway we had Christmas, I took up 5 bottles of wine (only drank one and my hubby didn’t drink any). Left them there when we left. We were given cereal for breakfast and tinned soup for lunch and a basic Christmas dinner. No puddings and just a little cheese for dessert.
We just got the bill… it came to £40 each! Am I Being Unreasonable to feel angry and insulted by this all? It doesn’t seem right to hand over money. Especially to my family. Also I feel really ripped off! I don’t want to upset my husband, but his family is a new level of cheap. If I did that to my brother, he probably wouldn’t speak to me again!
