"They broke an agreement that you made together and took advantage of you by not contributing at all to the cost of the trip. They should be ashamed of themselves! You have every right to speak to them about this. Remind them that you all agreed on the travel plans and the sharing of costs. They reneged. When you offered to let them ride with you anyway, they should have at least contributed to gas and tolls."
"My wife and I, along with a few family friends, needed to travel to Canada for a funeral. We decided it would be more economical to drive, so I booked the rental vehicle. Our friends let us know that they'd send us their contribution before we hit the road. The day before our departure, they called, saying they might just take a bus because it's more affordable, despite us choosing the rental car together and agreeing on pricing."
A couple and family friends planned to drive to Canada for a funeral and agreed to share rental and travel expenses. The friends later said they might take a bus instead, despite earlier agreement to share costs. The couple paid for the rental, drove, and covered gas and tolls while the friends contributed nothing. The couple feels annoyed; the wife wants to address the situation with the friends while the husband fears awkwardness. The friends reneged, took advantage, and should contribute now to defray expenses. The couple should remind the friends of the agreement and ask them to make a contribution to cover some costs.
