UMMMMM What the heck...
So my brothers girlfriend is pregnant. I am going down to Florida for the shower. I just got the invite and on the bottom it says where she is registered and then it says
($16.00 per person)
W T F does that mean? I HAVE TO PAY TO GO TO A SHOWER

Re: UMMMMM What the heck...
Would it be considered very tacky of you to not go, but send a check for $16?

Re: UMMMMM What the heck...
that is so funny because I have a friend in Florida (originally from NY) and she sent me the same kind of invite--it was $20 pp..
needless to say I didn't go--airfare+hotel+present+vacation day+TWENTY DOLLARS? no thanks!
I guess it's normal there!?

Re: UMMMMM What the heck...
So I guess you can't apply the money spent on a plane ticket toward the fee of $16?

Is there a "host" listed?
I cannot imagine being a host & putting that!
do you walk in, pay 16 dollars & then sit down?

Her sister is the host.

Re: UMMMMM What the heck...
Is there a name of the host on the card with the RSVP phone number? I would ask what the $16 is for? And than ask her if she takes credit cards. How stupid
