To think we have to share our discount with everyone

[lrjsng]

We're going somewhere this weekend with several other family's. We earn by far the most but also get it half price as work for the nhs. We have to buy as a group and share our discount. Equally right?

Yes I’d say total cost divided by number of people/families is the best way. You all get some discount then.

Not necessarily. The other people will get their own perks through their jobs.

Is it a monetary discount like £100 off?

Why do you have to ask you either do or you don't your morals.

It would be the nice thing to do

Reverse?

Wow why didn't I know about the half price holidays when I worked in the NHS. Kept those quiet.

Yes you do - that's surely the whole purpose - "Hey guys, lets go to X place, we get Y% off, it's a great deal" ? not "ooh lets let our mates pay full whack and we get a freebee"

Eatsleepworkrepeat NHS workers have shed loads of preferential discounts - easy google able abut I'm surprised you didn't know seeing as my inbox is full of the spam.

So, are the options:-

A. Only you get the discount
B. The whole group get a discount

?

Do you want to elaborate and give us more information otherwise why would you do anything other than B?

I work for the NHS, where is the magical place and how I do get this discount?

• misses point of thread entirely -

You presumably like these people since you’re going away with them. And you said you’re the highest earners in the group. Why wouldn’t you want to share the discount with your friends? How is it even a question?

If it’s a limited discount - ie use it only 4 times in a year or for so much saved in a year then yes it would be reasonable to have an issue. If it’s unlimited use then what new year said is usually the way it works 🙂. NHS discounts don’t usually have limits do they?

If you like the people you're going with and sharing the discount costs you nothing then why wouldn't you?

I've only seen 5% off holidays. Would love to know what this 50% off is!

Erm how do I get half price holidays as an NHS worker ??? If you do then yeah let your friends benefit !!

OP never said it was a holiday! read the thread properly! she said going somewhere this weekend - could be a theme park or somewhere like that.

If you were all planning on paying together then yes the cost would be split equally however if each family are paying separately then it would not be possible to split the discount,

The OP doesn't say it's a holiday - she says she's going 'somewhere' this weekend. I read it to be an attraction.

I’m guessing it’s probably a meal out and the serving person gets 50% off. When it’s a split the bill thing then yeah sure. These discounts are never at top end places and the discount is often quite insignificant to the main bill. So it’s really not that big a deal.

It depends if it’s a % don’t account of the price or a set monetary amount off e.g £25 off entry fee.

Which is it?

• don’t account should read discount off!

Either way if you get a discount and your allowed you share with friends. I have vouchers to take people to a theme park for £20 does this mean I should charge them full price because it’s my voucher? Of course not.

You need to clarify how the pricing works , and how the discount works for anbody to be able to comment.
eg is it a holiday cottage with 25% off , or theme park admission with 2 tickets at half price
