[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So if this was a girls’ trip—a group of old college friends, say— and one of them happened to have a beach house that they offered up, you would assume that that friend was also covering all of your meals for the week?[/quote]

NP - We have a beach house and yes, when I have my girls (or any guests) here I have the house stocked. My friends are gracious and always take me out for at least one meal and we split other meals out. They also ask what they can bring to the house. I have never asked my friends for a monetary contribution towards groceries or anything for the house.

Back to the OP, I also have a son who has had friends at our house. His friend's parents have always offered to send snacks, etc. and we have not had a problem with kids not having spending money. If you don't want to cover food at your house, do not invite so many kids. You tell your son you are only able/willing to host x number of kids at a time.

I hear you, but I still think there is distinct difference between a beach house owner thinking “I want to host my friends here, I’m going to invite them,”
and “my group of friends is planning a trip together and I happen to have a beach house they can use.”[/quote]
