Should Rebecca come clean about David's baguette?

I think she should tell him about the deal up front and suggest that they split the difference. He wouldn't have known about unless she told him so splitting seems fair.
If he's a decent boss he'd probably say she can keep all the difference rather than splitting it (besides I bet running to the shops and collecting boss's lunch was never part of her job description)

Not at all, she is not deciving him about the cost. He is getting what he paid for. And she gets some profit.
Everyone's a winner!

Yes she should keep the money,after all she's getting his meal every day for him whilst he's sat at his desk!

She should tell him and then suggest they split the saving.After all it`s his money but her idea.

Use the coupon and give him the change. His response will say a great deal about what kind of boss he is.

I totally agree. Not only is honesty the best policy, but it gives me a chance to express my appreciation for my granddaughter, Becky's loyal service and help over the years.

But how did you know about Becky and me?

First and mainly it is dishonest and could ruin her career.Secondly if she tells David he would probably thank her,let her keep the difference and more important think more highly of her and trust her.

Okay, I'm not saying I would do this but:

It is a voucher based offer, it is likely that she buy the newspaper with her own money, and therefore the voucher is hers to use.

If therefore she uses the voucher against a purchase that she owns, I do not see this as theft. In fact I would have the £1 lunch and my boss could pay full price.

If she had a dealing with the staff that his meal would cost £1, then this is then being dishonest and should only take £1

On the other hand she could say there is an offer in the paper, but then perhaps she would not be able to buy her own lunch with a voucher and she would pay full and her boss £1

Effectively the voucher is a form of currency, regardless of who's voucher it is. If the paper was a work paper and she took the voucher, then asked her boss for full price, then this is not right. Likewise if its her bosses voucher then of course he should only pay £1

She should tell her boss and give him his money back.

So, he gets the cheap lunch and she has to pay the full price for hers?

Make him pay the full price and either get herself a discount or use it for his and chuck the money in a charity box.

She is probably sensible and brings in a sandwich or suchlike from home rather than spend something like a fiver a day1
