Never would I when it comes to my group of friends as that is the norm for us, but it that really has nothing to do with blondies situation.

Yeah it sucks that she has some friends that are freeloaders and based on past history with her friends, I am sure when bloondie made the offer she had a different idea of what the answer might be and is a little shocked by it and came on here to speak her mind. What is only $10 to one person, might be alot more to someone else.
Yeah to be honest I did just get on here to vent and I do appreciate others opinons but I didn't expect to be attacked...

In our group, we share the hosting and the host provides pretty much everything and then others bring bits and peices, which can be anything...so if they want to bring something it can be what ever they want. I have probably said this 15 times already but these people are not "playing by the rules" so to speak. They are happy to go to other peoples's houses for Dinner, take nothing, eat their fill and leave and but aren't prepared to reciprecate...
