nwr: paying the bill rant

so this might be long sorry..
so we go out to dinner tonight for mothers day with me and fh, his brother, his parents, and his sister and her husband and their four kids. so the wait is long so we go to buy drinks at the bar so, my fh buys one round for his bro, me, sis, and a soda for his dad (his sister isnt a drinker but drink 1/2 the drink), then his brother buys me and fh and himself a drink. so then we all sit down to eat. now me and fh hubby went to brunch with my mom and dad and g-ma and were pretty full still, so we order two more drinks and an appitizer. his rents order an app and two small meal. his brother orders a dinner and picks on the appitizer that his sisters husband gets. so his sisters husband orders two appitizer for the table. his meal ( a steak, soup and salad) and the four kids and fh's sister orders meals. long story short the bill comes and sisters husband grabs the check and goes to the 'guys' (fh, his bro and his dad). ok umm the total plus tip divided buy four is $60 each.... WHAT!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!? $60 for our two drinks and appiziter. his brother paid $60 for his own meal and his sister and her husband and four kids pays $60! wtffffffffffffffffff now me and fh were expecting to pay for his mom and dad atleast for mothers day but couldnt even offer to split it with his brother and sister after that total! i was fumingggggggggg and meawhile my fh is a pushover and just pays up! *** his sister married a cheapo and i am jsut beside myself!

ahh sorry for the rant but i cannot believe this!

That is crazy...I hate people who do that order way way more than everyone else and then want to split the bill

Unfortunely this time you have to deal with it but next time I would have FH def discuss how the bill will be split before hand

Re: nwr: paying the bill rant

and here we are being all nice buying a round at the bar, blah blah blah and to get that big just was like bam! we spent like almost 100 bucks at millers ale house no less (cheap prices) for two drink each and an appitizer! i felt more bad for fbil that he had to pay that for just himself!

sorry for the spelling im angrily typing!

i don't blame you for being pissed off but if your FH didn't say anything, i wouln't vent to anyone in his family about it. i mean, i would totally vent to FH but that it.

ugh Id be so pissed off!

Honestly they should have said since you guys didn't eat as much, just split the mom's etc and pay your own.

My family always splits it but we're all eating the same meal! If a couple came and ordered an app, they'd say please - you only ordered an app - give us...$25. whatever. crazy.
