She pitched up yesterday at my DS 3rd Birthday party (at one of those activity places) with all the other mums and kids, and presented me with her gifts wrapped in last yrs xmas paper! She never lets me down in showing how tight fisted she is....AIBU

This is ridiculous!!!How long does wrapping paper last on a 3yr old's present?

YABU. Get a life. Ideally one that doesn't involve the decimation of any more rainforest.

My 3yo DS would have been thrilled with that wrapping paper.

In fact, he is currently watching Raymond Briggs' 'Father Christmas' on DVD.

He will then walk around until bedtime saying things like 'mind the bloomin' paint' to the dog.

If this is the extent of your worries then I suggest you live a little!
