[quote=Anonymous]Hate these "parties" -- whether or not the hostess says there's "no pressure to buy", of course there is. The hostess -- your friend or neighbor or acquaintance from PTA or whatever -- is doing this to sell the stuff, not simply to provide a sociable evening for her guests. So, of course you feel obligated to buy. When you go to a real party, the purpose of which is to enjoy one another's company, as a guest, you hold up your end of the conversation, mingle and act friendly. When you to a fundraiser, the purpose is to support a good cause, so you make a contribution to support that cause. And, I hate the whole wierd faux "girls night out" vibe. When I go out with my friends, we talk about books, movies, politics, our families -- not about crappy jewelery, overpriced, out-of-style clothes and cheaply made and unnecessary cooking equipment.
