MMD: Should Trinny share her bingo winnings with Susannah?

Options
Here's this week's hypothetical situation for you to cogitate on:
Should Trinny share her bingo winnings with Susannah?

Trinny and Susannah have a night out at the bingo. As Trinny’s short of cash, Susannah treats her to some bingo cards. Trinny’s ecstatic when she wins the £1500 jackpot; she’s really struggling to make ends meet and the windfall will help pay off some of her debts. But she realizes that without Susannah’s generosity she wouldn’t have bought the card in the first place.
Should Trinny share her bingo winnings with Susannah ?

And if so..... how much?

    Share your luck goes the old adage.

    I think Trinny should offer her half

  • Yes, she should go 50/50

    But, on a different matter, if she has borrowed the money from her friend, then she shouldn't.

    ;)
    Be nice, life is too short to be anything else.
  • 50/50 Bingo buddies usually have a deal anyway. At work we've got a one out all out lottery agreement:rotfl: :rotfl: - perhaps we should buy some tickets:rotfl:

    An ex of mine had a similar situation. An auntie bought him a scratch card as a present and he won $5000 - so he gave her $500, which was fair I think.
  • They should definitely go halves; and now that they've got some cash, they can go and buy decent clothes to wear for next time they're on the telly.:rotfl:

    She should give her £500 out of it. After all she is skint so giving half is a bit too much!!

    yes she should at least half as friedship is more inportant than money even if you don't think it is at the time.
  • whenever i've gone to the bingo with anyone, we always say that the prize money will be split equally between us
