To think that my well off Auntie could have bought me a house warmer as well

[crazedupmom]

My niece has recently moved into her first house and my much well off auntie bought her some vouchers to spend as she wishes.
I moved house a alittle while before my niece I recieved some gifts off some of my family which was very nice.
Nothing off my auntie I was out with my auntie and other members of my family when my auntie bought the vouchers for my niece.
I feel quite hacked off about it tbh.
My mom my aunties sister said its because my auntie was invited for tea to my nieces house whereas my auntie has just been along for a look at my house and a cup of tea and cake.
My mom agrees though that its not really fair.

maybe she will redeem herself this christmas

Not sure I would give anything to someone moving house. Box of chocs when I went to visit the first time, maybe. Certainly didn't expect anything from anyone the three times we've moved. First home is a bit different especially if your niece is youngish, however well off she may be.

Good point about Christmas. Did you give her a list?

I don,t have enough paper to write it on

oh I loved sharon and the dead wasp

OP, you sound incredibly grasping. I can't bear people like you.

Always more interesting round here when the schools are off innit?

Oh yes I see, a house warmer present. I was thinking it could be a new term for 'radiator'.

OP your auntie is a right bastard. I would put pressure on 'd'neice to share her vouchers with you.

niece ffs

I f it helps, my aunty and uncle are multi-millionaires and have never given a penny nor a gift to any member of the family.

They also announced that when they die they are leaving all their money to the cats protection league.

Their only saving grace is that they spend all day every day completely sozzled

So yeah, sympathy, etc.

OOhh Tethers i know a great forger, want to halfers? .

YABU, totally understand.

I was going to get a gift off my dh but he said that he would have to get it off of his brother who got it off Sharon. She got something off of the off licence, the bitch. Didn't offer me nothing she got off of the offy so I went to Londis and didn't even ask if she wanted a Topic off of me.

YANBU obviously.

Kill her

I don't know why you are getting such a hard time. I remember when my auntie said that onece we hit 18 no more xmas presents, then bought cousin a coffee maker, she was 24.

I have nieces. I prefer one to the other. One is lovely, I see her often, she makes a fuss of my children etc.

Other one can't really be arsed.

I give more to one than the other.

So sue me.

Well, maybe she thought your cousin made awful coffee and was trying to tell her in a kind way.

"Kill her"

I've got a rich auntie too, we never see a penny.

None of us care any more though, because she's fat...

I don't have a rich Auntie.

I have a fat one though.

I thought a house warmer was like a big house-sized tea cosy as well

My DH always tells me if there's a wrong end of the stick I'll grab it, and he's not wrong

Did your auntie give you anything for your first house ? Maybe she though her neice was much younger and needed a voucher , I think you are being a bit expectant (isthat a word ) and wanting a gift
