Went to one of DH's relative's birthday party on the weekend. The birthday was a 'big' one. The couple (the birthday person and spouse are very generous to my DH, myself and our DD).
I managed to buy something which would be useful to the couple, it is normally fairly expensive but I found a good deal which was a third of its normal price - bringing it down to around what we would normally spend.
Today now, MIL has rang asking how much we spent on the present etc. Saying we shouldn't have spent so much etc. I had a feeling that this would happen. DH refused to give the actual price but said it was a good deal and not to worry etc. She seemed a bit put out and now wants to buy something more expensive for the birthday person as her present.
Would this sort of nosiness annoy you too?
