An old uni friend is getting married at the end of the month, I am going (but not dh or dcs as it's a child-free wedding) as he was a close friend at uni and there are going to be loads of our old group there. I haven't seen him or them for a while so don't want to miss it.
However, the petrol for the drive down (3 hours) and the hotel (sharing with another friend) are really stretching us. And they put on their wedding invitation that our presence is the only gift they want but if we want to buy anything here is the wedding list. So, WIBU to take them up on that and just get a card rather than a gift? Or is it the kind of thing that is written but not really meant, iyswim?
I geuinely don't know. I think DH would expect me to get them a gift, but I'm just not sure we can afford to do that as well.
