To be slightly cheesed off re. friend booking holiday?

[MooFeatures]

Long story short:

Persons X and Y agree to go on holiday. They find a deal they like, at a price they agree to per person. Person X offers to book it, and person Y pays them back their half.

A few months later it turns out person X had 15% discount code on the total booking. Fair enough, the price person Y paid them
was the going (and pre-agreed) rate for the holiday... but AIBU in thinking that was some grade-A CF-ery by X basically claiming ~£150 cash back from Y?

Yes that's rubbish of X, how did Y find out?

That's poor show. No way is that acceptable.

Y made no secret of it after a gin or two...

I would always pass any savings on (and tell my friend when booking in the first place that I had a discount code). Not a very good-natured way to behave to a friend at all!

So X paid 35% of the cost and Y 50%, rather than 42.5% each? That's shitty behaviour from a friend.

You mean X?

And they did that to a friend. Is the holiday still happening? CF bigtime

**X made no secret of it after a gin or two! Which is what I’ve also had, and is why I’m struggling to remember if I’m X or Y in this (deffo not the CF!)

I always struggle with threads where there's person A, B and C etc.

Absolutely not fair of X.
X is having their holiday subsidised by Y. Friends don't do this. X should not be charging Y more than the cost of Y's holiday. The discount is on the holiday, not all loaded onto X's portion.

What a cowbag!

My initial reaction was “I’m not even mad; that’s amazing. All drinks will be on you”.

I just need her to realise I’m not joking 🤔

How did she get the discount code? Was it something she had to pay for or use up air miles for? If not that's bloody CFery!

Ooohhh that is super cheeky! Scarlet for her!

Remember to pack your calculator, there'll be a lot of bill splitting cheeky fuckery on that holiday

I just couldnt be friends after that.

Yep, the drinks are on her! When you are both sober, I would have a word with her and ask her how she would be feeling if roles were reversed!

Extremely CFuckery of the highest order!

I would definitely expect cash back from her!

I’d be more than slightly cheesed off Op I’d be bloody furious. Who would do that to a friend?

Wait, so one person paid 50% of the full price and the other paid the balance due after the discount was applied? That's shitty behaviour and not very 'friend-like'! If I was entitled to a discount, I'd definitely apply it before divvying up the costs!

I’m really annoyed for you, OP!

Horrible person. They owe you that money. The fact that you agreed to a price does not make it ok.

I think that your solution for them to fund you up to the money they owe you is a diplomatic solution.

A less diplomatic idea is to take a different friend and buy out this other person. I wouldnt want to be friends with someone like this.

I be telling them that you consider that they've stolen off you or maybe say profited

Everyone gets to share the discount equally. Cheeky cow. Only exception might be if she got discount vouchers as a perk of work or something. Even then I’d share it.

Why should she claim the discount on YOUR share?

Really sneaky and dishonest.

I'd have a serious chat about that. It's not even fair if she puts that 15% into a kitty because she will also benefit from 50% of that kitty so will still be up on you. (It took my young dd ages to get her head round that maths when her friend paid her back the money owed by buying them both sweets)

To be fair she needs to give you half of that saving before the holiday.
