An Aussie mum has shared her shock after she was invited to a friend’s home for a dinner party — and asked to pay A$100 ($107) for the privilege.
The Melbourne woman shared her story with Australian website Kidspot, revealing that a pal invited their friend group round for dinner and always “put on a pretty nice spread”.
She praised the previous meals and said the host fancies themself “a bit of a home chef”.
“But this time, for some reason, they asked if we could ‘chip in’ for the meal, and by that, she meant around $100 each. She said it was because the steak she had bought ended up costing a little more than she expected.”
The shocked guest said she thought $30 or $40 would be acceptable, but the amount requested was over the top.
