AIBU No More Presents

I am livid with my brother in law.

He is much better off than we are, always has flashy holidays, new car, really expensive house etc.

He suggested a presents that his 3 kids would like for Christmas, a xbox 1 game for £50, a remote control drone for £40 and a football kit for £60.

I suggested it would be nice if he got our 2 kids a surprise, he knows them well enough. It was a well though out surprise, a gift voucher for £10 each!

Considering how well off he is and the list he gave me, I think this is outrageous behavior and I want to suggest no more present exchanges!

When you're finding your seats, say, "Oh, you got the wrong. These are your tickets. We bought the premium ones remember".

He sounds bloody awful!! Very grabby. Don't confront him at the panto. Just text him beforehand saying 'best bring the £30 difference with you tonight so we can be square' grabby sod
