When an invitation becomes an invoice
There is nobody who would disagree with the fact that money is tight these days. However, the birthday party invitation you're about to see is just not acceptable!
A birthday party 'invitation' has been widely criticised online after racking up over one million views.
The invitation was sent by a one-year-old's mother, and suggests (demands) a number of various gifts.
A gift registry is pretty much par for the course when it comes to weddings, but to send a list of 'preferred' gifts with an invitation to a one-year-old's birthday party is a little cheeky, we think.
The invitation even says, “If you choose...something that isn't on this list...please be sure to always include a receipt going forward. When we return items without receipts, we only get about 50 per cent of the value, so it's like throwing away money if you don't include a receipt with the gifts.”
What do you think? Is this just an acceptable way of letting people know what you need OR is it just plain rude?
