[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your subject implies you will only buy the best if your princess/prince gets to solely use them.  If what you buy is going into the communal pool- then you'll buy the crap.  Righto.

You are also the one that puts in the paltry amount into the Group Gift since nobody will know how much each contributed---and god forbid you put in more than everyone else, correct?

You don't know me, so don't make assumptions.  You are wrong.  I'm the one organizing the class gift.  I'm the one bringing ALL the treats for the school party.  I'm the one who leads the girl scout troop.  I'm teh one who wants to know if everyone really IS sending in the expensive stuff (some of the "preferred" items cost 4 times as much as the store brand and I'm not sure there is a significant difference).  If everyone IS complying, then I will too.  If the general opinion is "I'm just buying what I think is a good deal regardless of the "preferred" status," then I'm down for being value conscious as well.... especially if items are pooled.

I note that these "generous" acts are all things you get public credit for.[/quote]
