CF or AIBU?

I’ve been holed up at home with a bad foot for several days now. A friend dropped by for a cup of tea and despite my protests offered to do a spot of shopping for me.

I needed milk, bread, soup and cereal. Gave her a £20 note as it was all I had in cash.

She came back with all of the above items plus a bottle of wine and, randomly, a china mug. Gave me £2 back in change!

I said “oh good, I could do with a drop of wine. What’s the mug for?”.

She replied with “ Oh that’s for my morning coffee. Mine broke and this was on sale so got it.”

I was a bit Hmm as, looking at the receipt, the food bits came to less than a fiver, wine was £8 and the mug was £4. Didnt mind about the wine as we were going to share the bottle but AIBU to think that she’s a CF for buying a mug?!

BTW, just to clarify that this is a lighthearted thread as she’s a good mate and I didn’t really mind. Even though she’s a cheeky git!

Even the wine is a bit Hmm

Plus she didn’t clearly didn’t even give me all the change!

I couldn't really begrudge a good friend who would do me favours and visit me a £4 mug to be honest.

Depends on how skint you are and clearly it's a little cheeky but I'd be happy to return the favour so quickly!

CFERY!
She used 1/4 of what you gave her for your actual shopping and nearly another 1/4 on a present for herself.
Is she planning on drinking some of the wine as well?

Oh yes @Alloftgeboys she drank more than half! 😂

This is why I love MN. Nothing like some brass neck CFery to get my blood boiling!
