Begging on Facebook

[firellogs]

God I'm sick
Of it. Every bloody time I open
Facebook there's the same
School mummy looking for free uniforms: shoes/ gym gear/ football boots/ school books etc etc.

She is very wealthy.

She is honest about her reluctance to pay for anything if people happen to have them' hanging around gathering dust'.

Am I envious of her obvious cheek or AIBU to think she is a shameless and irritating bum?

There's more than a few on here, often on Sundays. They've figured out what works and what usually gets suggested so they can put them in their first post - they have no nappies or formula, there's no food bank open for three days, they've used their emergency credit, they have no friends/family to lend money/food.

And the replies: "Check your DMs hun." It works.

It always seems to be the way that wealthy means tightest.

I have booked a hotel suite (one bedroom and one bed) for an upcoming family wedding. I booked immediately and got a very good deal. A wealthy relative has got wind of this and is putting pressure on me to share so we can reduce our costs. She is telling me that she hasn't booked yet (mmm). I checked online and there are still rooms available. Very hurt that I'm saying no. I'm looking forward to enjoying the space and don't particularly want to share a bed or bedroom. She's bending a lot of people's ears apparently. I know that what is really winding her up is that I've got this deal and she hasn't

I think she uses her status of being environmentally friendly... which she doesn't appear to be and her social standing.... think medical profession... to bum.
I know so many people who could genuinely do with a feee tennis racket or swimming goggles, shin guards etc but would have more pride and self respect rather than bum under the guise of recycling . Such shit .

Or, instead of noticing and thinking about the woman’s job, car, clothing and social media content, you could do something else.
