No matter how good a friend is, it still hurts feelings when encountering money. A British woman complained on “Mumsnet” that she only ordered 25 pounds (approximately NT$1009) for meals when she had dinner, but she had to spend three times more at the checkout to help other friends share the meal cost equally, which made her unacceptable .

The woman stated in the article that they eat big meals and share the bills equally every two to three months. “More expensive” restaurant, but she felt that it was not fair.

At the suggestion of the waiter, they ordered the main meal priced at 25 to 45 pounds (approximately NT$1009 to 1816), and the “chef’s special meal” which was not informed of the price in advance. But everyone expected 55 to 60 pounds (about NT$2220 to 2422) for the special meal, which actually exceeded 90 pounds (about NT$3633), plus the shared wine, and finally friends paid 125 pounds (about NT$3633) 5,046 yuan), and the woman paid 110 pounds (about NT$4,440) to split the meal cost equally.

The more the woman thought about it afterwards, the more something went wrong. She thought that she only ordered a main meal of 25 pounds, and each drank a shared glass of wine and water, but other people ordered a more expensive set meal with appetizers, and everyone drank more wine than her. , No matter how I calculate it, I should only need to pay 40 pounds (about NT$1614), but in the end I spent 110 pounds, which is three times faster, and asked other netizens: “What would you do instead?”
