[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, don't go. You are the cheap one and family probably knows it. It's not your first time or last time to be cheap, and considering 2023 just started, you don't want to spend the money. It's family and you go and suck the expense up or don't go because you don't like the person.
There is so much work out there right now, I don't know what your excuse is for not having money other than being cheap.
OR do talk to the organizer if you must go. There's a way for you to leave cash with him/her before hand- the $25 and whatever you are going to eat. You don't take your cheapness out on the restaurant or the server. 
Family knows you are cheap. They may pay for it all, so stop sweating.[/quote]

+1 My MIL invited everyone to a restaurant for pre xmas eve dinner, including all of her kids' in laws (my parents included). We were HORRIFIED when she announced she was feeling tired during dessert and that she was going home.
Check came.
Guess who was stuck with the bill...everyone BUT her.
That was the last restaurant invitation I accepted from her. I told DH- that was absolutely absurd and I'm tapping out. [/quote]
