Bracing myself.... I don't usually do AIBUs!
PIL asked what the Dcs would like for Christmas. They do this every year and I have no problem with providing suggestions to fit their budget (even though I struggle to think of gifts myself!). This year it was something they wouldn't have a clue about and it was an ebay store selling and so I offered to order the gifts to be delivered to their house. In total they came to ninety pounds which I have paid for.
The money for these has not materialised. We have seen them three times since then. AIBU to ask for it? This has happened twice before. I ought to have learnt my lesson!!
They also then bought the DCs a book each but when we left their house on Christmas Day the books had disappeared and I couldn't find them. We subsequently went to their house and I saw the books upstairs. DS2 has been asking for his and was disappointed when I told him I couldn't find it. He then also saw it at PIL house and said that he'd asked to bring it home and they'd then said it didn't belong to him it belonged to them and he couldn't bring it home.
AIBU to say "oh did we leave the DCs books here on Christmas Day" or would you just drop it over a book?

AIBU?
To expect PIL to pay for the presents they bought the DCs for Christmas?
