[quote=Anonymous]I have multiple large circles of friends, and we invariably do a lot of things in groups.  The simple trick is that we are clear what is free and what is not from the get go and do not try and social engineer too many things.

A recent show invite that had 8 families from our neighborhood joining in. It was wonderful. We all paid for ourselves and one friend also brought along a couple who was visiting from OOS.  6 couples went out for dinner afterwards and I made reservations but checks were separate.

[i]Friends, anyone interested in attending xxxxx show at xxxx venue?  DH and I will be attending it and we have already purchased our tickets for DD/MM/YYYY the 7 pm show from ticket master. We have paid $xx for 2 tickets.  You are free to buy more expensive or cheaper tickets based on availability.    We plan to go for dinner at abc restaurant (yelp rating 4.7, $$).   Let us know if you want to join in for the show,  dinner or both.  If you all want to go for dinner as a group, let me know and I will make reservations.  We have place for 2 more people in our car, incase you don't want to drive at night.  [/i]

My kids have learned that. They organize a lot of get togethers and meetups for their friends but they are clear what event they are hosting themselves (no money or food contribution), what is the dress code, what is a potluck (with menu), transportation, what contribution do they need etc.

They also travel a lot internationally as a group and they do a good job similarly.
