Four of us in a friend group.
We all do nice birthday presents for each other, and have done for 10+ years.
One of the group is having a tough time and is in the middle of moving house so we decide to do a small gift and a voucher so that it’s easier with our move.
Two of us also made clear we felt a voucher was a better option atm because friend is going to have to lot a house from top to bottom rather unexpectedly the other agreed. They offered to take the money and sort the voucher and a nice card.
They then decided, without any discussion, that there was “too big a risk” our friend would buy practical and boring stuff and not treat themselves.
So they’ve bought a fucking Costa Coffee voucher. Basically so they can only buy coffees and cakes.
Aibu to think that that’s completely out of order, and a shit present
