A WOMAN has sparked controversy after revealing that she bills her friends after they attend her dinner parties.
After hosting an evening dinner party for her friend and her husband, Brianna Weimar, 34, was secretly actively keeping track of what each of them had consumed and used throughout the night, to later hit them with a bill.
The choice to charge her friend after welcoming them into her home has left them stunned, with Brianna sending a $58 Venmo request to her – which she labeled as “unbelievable.”
While Brianna sees no wrong in charging people, this friend had a starkly different opinion, and explained that she wasn’t the one hosting it so she shouldn’t have had to be required to pay anything.
Brianna then responded with a list of everything that was used, calculating each cost, which allegedly totaled up to $58.
The specific breakdown of the list includes water usage, which set her friend back $4, 13 ounces of red wine costing $15, and seven toilet flushes, which resulted in a a further $3.50.
“This seems so normal to me. Everything is so expensive now,” said Brianna, who is from Monroe, Washington.
“The prices of food and utilities are so expensive, so I think it’s fair to split that cost among the guests that come to my house.
“This is so rude of someone to do after coming to my house for a dinner party.”
Brianna has been hit with backlash online after the video was uploaded.
“Honestly, you just shouldn’t invite people over if it’s too much,” wrote one commenter.
“No way! I would not invite anyone to a dinner party if I could not afford it. Did you tell them before the dinner party you were going to do that?” yet another person asked.
She also places no age limits on who she charges.
As previously reported by The U.S. Sun, the mom also wants parents whose children come to her home for playdates to pay for anything used by their little ones.
This includes everything from snacks to juice, and even electricity and pumps of soap used from hand washing.
She has also found herself in texting fights with those who don’t find her charges very amusing.
She shared how parents have been left “shocked,” “confused,” and “angry.”
Many won’t send their kids to her house anymore.
“People have been very critical, they do not agree with this method at all,” she said.
She explained how she first considered charging others for what children were consuming at her house due to the overall increase in the cost of living.
When it came to devising her price list, she even created her own spreadsheets.
“Food is getting so expensive now, I was constantly refilling my kids snacks from all of their friends being over to play at our house,” she said.
