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.
My daughter delivered a wedding cake an hour late - should she fully refund?
My daughter's a baker and recently got the dates mixed up on a wedding cake order. She got a message asking where it was, and having done all the preparation, managed to get it to them for 7pm - it was due at 6pm. When she delivered it, the customer said: "We'll speak about this later." Fast forward, and the customer has asked for a full refund of £450. My daughter offered £100 as goodwill as she knows it was late, but the customer took the cake and didn't reject it - what would you do?
See what our MSE Forumites had to say and add your own thoughts on the Money Moral Dilemma discussion thread. Do please stick to the MSE Forum rules: keep it kind and keep it clean. Remember, there's a real person behind every dilemma.

Latest comping wins
It's been a very successful week for our comping community, with KJ1986 winning a DSLR camera, browneyedgirl1988 taking delivery of a soup maker and marcia_'s husband snapping up a brand new iPhone 16 in a radio contest.
Not only that, but npor23 is celebrating a well-timed win, receiving a £1,000 jewellery voucher that will help them with their wedding plans.
Your two cents
There's a lavatorial theme to the MSE Forum this week with two threads on the go about toilets. Susan1942 wants your help reviving an expensive mahogany seat while Dina is in the market for a new toilet seat and wants to know which brands are worth loo-king out for. After all, no-one wants to flush away more cash than they need to...
And now that we're in October, MSE_Laura_F has renewed her call-out for pics of your home-made Halloween decorations and costumes.
