[quote=Anonymous]I once received a bill for $95 after attending a surprise party. As a pregnant vegetarian I basically ate steamed broccoli while alcohol was flowing for everyone else indulging in the buffet. I had also chipped in for a big group gift. I'm sure my friend who the party was thrown for would be mortified if she knew. I actually would not have minded so much if it was phrased as "let's all chip in to throw Gina a party!" and I knew in advance. But getting a request afterward felt icky. This was prior to the era of Venmo so the "host" wanted checks mailed. I think it's okay to reiterate that others have offered to chip in to help and clarify how the offerer expects to handle expenses. State clearly that you don't want guests to pay to attend.[/quote]
