[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I had to vent. The materialism and over consumption bugs me combined with the expectation that people will buy her things that she won't or can't buy herself. [/quote] OK, but start pretending that she asks for loot and people give it to her because it's fun for them, and you aren't getting in the way of her fun. You just aren't participating. If people start pushing you to buy her stuff, just be cheerfully uncooperative. Act like this is a big misunderstanding: "Yes, I know she likes expensive stuff, but I don't like buying it for her, so I'm not going to. You all go ahead, though, if you want to."[/quote]
