I have a wealthy friend. She is taking a group of us away on her birthday to somewhere that will cost £££. Nearly all her friends are wealthy too. I have a good job but am a single mum and big outgoings. She won’t think I’m poor but the reality is I’ve got about £150 disposable income left until the end of the month no savings and in credit card debt. I don’t know what to get her as a present! Anything I can afford looks cheap. I don’t want to spend all that £150 even tho she’s probably spending four times that on me on the weekend away - I want to keep it for emergencies, unexpected expense or for things for the kids. I wish I hadn’t said I would go now but it wasn’t obvious how much she’d be spending when I committed to the date. She’s not expecting any cash for the weekend away and everything is paid for but she does tend to value expensive things. I’ll buy her a token present but it’s going to have to be cheap….£30 of make up or something…. She’s not a super close friend so I don’t know how comfortable I am telling her I’m broke!
