New. Forum Ambassadors

Since Monday 28 March, you may have noticed a band of new volunteers on the boards. These are our Forum Ambassadors and they'll be helping the MSE Forum team to keep the community a safe, helpful and supportive place. Check out the Site Feedback board for more information.

Money Moral Dilemma

Every week, the Money Tips email features a real-life Money Moral Dilemma (MMD for short). They're intended to encourage debate and, as such, they're usually among the most discussed threads each week.

I bought a friend gig tickets as a gift – should they have invited me?

I bought two concert tickets for a friend as a birthday gift, but they took another friend to the gig. As it was a present, was my friend free to take whoever they want, or should they have invited me?

You can find out what our Forumites think and add your own two cents on the Money Moral Dilemma discussion thread. Remember the MSE Forum rules: keep it kind and keep it clean. Remember, there's a real person behind every Money Moral Dilemma.

Got a Money Moral Dilemma of your own? Email us at MMD@moneysavingexpert.com and it could be featured.
