Every year my SIL sends me a list with ideas of what to get my two nephews, normally spend about £75 on them each, normally the list has one biggish present and few bits on it.
This years came with about 7 items on all ranging between £5-£15, thought nothing off it and my budget bought all the presents on the list, because I like to be organized (which she knows) list got sent end Oct beg Nov.
Fast forward to today, just got a new list because she made a mistake and sent me the one meant for her family (as there are 6 siblings they spend less per child with there being so many) with a note saying sorry her family have bought the gifts so could I just return mine and buy from the amended list, as when she sent it to them it last week realised she had sent me the same one.
AIBU in the fact that
-
mine were bought over a month ago so probably cannot return all of them and get a refund, so she should get her family to do the returns as they should get a refund because only bought recently.
-
Why should I start Christmas shopping again, hunting down presents which may not even arrive for Christmas.
Just to add we do have a decent relationship and my brother is my last close living family, and this year will be hard for me and him as we lost our mum 2020, part of me thinks I should just buy from the new list and return what I can, but part of me is a bit annoyed that she knows me and my brother struggle at Christmas having buried our dad 2016 and this being mums anniversary and she should have just done a new list for her family,
