[quote=Anonymous]It depends on the scenario!

When my parents visit us we stock the fridge for them and pay for a few activities/meals out that we plan. They often will initiate other (more expensive) meals out and activities, which they often pay for. When we visit them, we pay for our travel, but they typically pay for just about everything once we are there...just bc they have tons more money and they like to pay for things. We would usually pay for a nice dinner out as a 'thank you'.

When we had our son baptized, we paid for everything for the godparents, including their travel. They don't have a ton of disposable income but mostly we felt it was the appropriate thing to do. This was not a vacation for them but a favor for us.

We recently visited good friends in Florida at their new home. We paid for our travel, stayed in their home, but we helped purchase some groceries bc we were there for a week. However, we split all meals and activities except for a few cheaper things that didn't really matter...like lunch at Chipotle. We discussed in advance how we'd handle the $. [/quote]
