To be annoyed about friend questioning our finances

A friend of mine recently recommended taking spa tone instead of the prescribed iron tablets the doctor has given me to avoid the horrible side effects, but when I explained that my doctor would prescribe it and I can't afford to buy it, she began to question what we 'spend all our money on?' I said that was none of her business and she said she couldn't believe 'with all the tax credits we claim' that we couldn't afford the odd £10 here and there. AIBU to be really annoyed and upset by this. Her husband earns £50k a year and she runs her own small company and they only have one DD.

OP. I have had a situation like yours recently, a long term friend who had been in simular finacial situation to me met and married a man who was in a much better financial position. I was pleased for her change in luck, but recently she has been a bit bitchy when I have said I cannot go with her on several outings due to the lack of finances, I thought she would understand, but she has been bitchy about this instead. I have now severed that friendship as it became toxic, I would advise you to do the same.
