Speaker 1 (00:00):
Mix one or two point three Max Andali in the morning. Now, guys,
yesterday we were talking about well, the cheapest person you've
ever met, right, and it was all a little bit
of fun and games. But then we took Sally from
Croydon's call and it kind of has taken a little
bit of a turn for her because it's not just
fun anymore. Sally, good morning. Hi guys, Okay, talk to
me about this cheap person that you're living with and
(00:23):
the issues that it's actually causing.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
I have a very good friend. Her name is Val
and she is the biggest tit us I know. Fifteen
years of friendship. She has never offered to buy a
round of drinks. She's always quite happy to accept around.
Quite often when we go out for coffee, she'll take
sugar from the coffee shops because she doesn't want to
buy her own sugar. The list goes on. She recycled
(00:48):
her tea bags. I asked her one day with we
were at her house why my tea was so weak,
and she said, because she'd already made a cup of
tea with that same tea bag.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
You've got a recycled for guess.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
I can continue if you like like she never chips
in for petrol. When we do road trips, She'll ask
us to chip in for petrol our group of girlfriends,
and she even drives ten k's under the speed limit
just to preserve the petrol. She has got quite a
well paying job, She's quite well off. She's got a house,
a car. I'm a single mum, I've got two kids,
and I'm saving hard for a house. But the worst
(01:24):
of all is I've purchased Taylor Swift tickets for the
two of us, and she still hasn't paid me back.
I've asked her three times now and she keeps saying, yep, yep,
I'll get that to you when I get home from work.
I feel like I can't ask her anymore because it's embarrassing.
But I know she can afford.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
It, have you actually, because how long have you guys
been mates?
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Fifteen years?
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Right, so in this fifteen years, have you kind of
brought it up with her? Like even sort of jokingly going, oh,
surely it's your turn for your round, Yeah, you're round
or something.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
I always forget to wallet or her purse, okay, And
you know I have brought with her before, but she's
not forthcoming, and so what.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Does she say though? What she say when you say, hey, mate,
it's actually probably time you pay for a bit, she
says she's.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Going to get to it, like, well, you know, I'll
get the next round and then she'll leave and she
doesn't buy the next round. Whether it's myself, Sarah and
Natt or Lucy are good friends, like she just yeah,
she's I've had enough. I'm actually quite done with how
tight she is.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
I think we've all been in a position like this before,
but usually just in isolation, you've got the full suite
of a tight mate, like and she's doing all She's
ticking all of those boxes. You say you've had enough, Sally, Well,
it's going to affect the friendship at certain point. You
think you're there.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I think so. I think, like, you know, okay, I
understand one or two drinks here and there, But like
Taylor Swift, tickets weren't cheap and in my position financially,
I know she's more well off than I am and
she can afford it. The only reason I purchased the
tickets at the time was because she was in a
work meeting and I was lucky enough to get the tickets,
(03:02):
but you know, and asked for her that day if
she could pay me, repay me, and I'm still waiting.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Is it time now? Well, I mean yeah, if you've
got that that you need that money back, is it
time now that you do actually want to speak to
her about it and just go this is it? I
need this and this is what's expecting our friendship. Otherwise
we're done.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
I think so. I think I'm at that point now
where I've just had enough, Like I'm embarrassed asking for
money when really she should be the one embarrassed owing
the money.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Can we speak to Vour if we go to break here?
Can we can we get Vow's number and give her
a ring?
Speaker 2 (03:34):
I'd be happy to speak to Vao.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Yes, okay, let's do that.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Stick around mix one or two point three Maxinali in
the morning. We've just been hearing from Sally of Croydon.
Now Sally has taken exception with the mate of hers
that she's had for fifteen years about being a little
bit tired. Yesterday we were talking about this and it
was all a little bit of fun and games. It
was like, yeah, they're type, but we love them.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
I'd buy me a coffee even though they just want
money on the pokey.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
But have friend vow owes her money for Taylor Swift
tickets and never buys her around and all that sort.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Of fifteen years deep into this now and the excuses
have run thin. All right.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Well, val from Onley is on the line. Good morning, Vow,
good morning.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
How are you all?
Speaker 1 (04:14):
We're good, We're sorry to be our well, I'm.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Sorry in advance intermediary.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Yes, Sally, your good friend of fifteen years is on
the line. Sally, do you want to have a chat
to vow?
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Hey, Voo has things?
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Am I curry?
Speaker 2 (04:28):
What's going on? I'm just getting a quick cool just
because I've I've had enough. And what I've had enough
of is you being such a tight ass, being so
stingy with your money. I've asked you time and time
again for repayment on the Taylor Swift tickets. You keep
telling me you're going to pay me back when you
(04:49):
get home from work, and I feel embarrassed chasing this up.
It's been a while now since Taytay was here, and
you know it's those tickets weren't cheap, and I just
feel like you're taking advance of me. It's upsetting me.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Now.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
I know you can afford it, and you know you've
got a great car, a great house. I am struggling
as a single mum two kids, trying busting my ass
to save for a house. I just feel like you're
taking advantage of me.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
Honey. You know I'm good for the money. I didn't
realize it was such a big issue. I just feel like,
you know, I've said I would pay.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I've been waiting. It just feels like forever, like I've
been waiting for so long now, and I've asked so
many times. I've had enough. I'm tired of asking, and
I'm not happy about this.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
A yeah, look, I'm just a bit gobsmaked as to
how this has come about. Like I have said numerous times,
I'll pay you the money. Money is not an issue.
It's yeah, I've just I haven't had the chance. But
I absolutely pay it. That balance coming out of the blue.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
It sounds like, I mean, if you feel like it's
coming out of the blue. In speaking to Sally, she
feels that she's sort of tried to broach the whole
idea of money and payment across your friendship and this
one might just be the straw that's broken the camel's back.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Can you I do pay for things? Like I feel
like she's made me out like I don't pay for things,
but you know I coffee.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
When was the last coffee you shouted me?
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Val?
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Oh mate? Don't you remember you using my macasapp and
we had coffees? I think in the last school holidays,
Like it's it's not like I don't pay for things.
You're making me out to sound like I'm this monster.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Maxonally helped me. This is what I'm dealing with. This
is what I've been dealing with for so long, and
I'm done. I've had enough.
Speaker 4 (06:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
I don't know how Sarah, Nat and Lucy feel about this,
but I am done. I want out of our friendship.
I don't want to continue this freendship. But I'd like
you to pay the money and then you go your way.
I go mine.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
Oh, Sally, I think that's a bit exaggerating. Don't you
think it's just a little bit of money for Taylor
Swift tickets?
Speaker 1 (06:55):
I think can we jump in briefly regardless on you know,
when you might have bought a coffee or night or whatever.
I think Sal's obviously pretty upset about something that's going
on in your friendship, and by you just saying well,
it's not going on, doesn't mean it isn't sliding a
little bit.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
I think there's a good give and take, Like she
has borrowed my March Jacob's tote bag here and there.
You know it's not a one.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Street Do you think that that's the same.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
I've bought stuff for mates in the past and they
bought stuff for me, and once it gets past a week,
if not paying them back, not just sending in the coins,
you don't you feel a little bit bad about not
sending a quick eft with the tailor money.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
I think she should know that I'm good for it,
Like I absolutely have the money sitting there. It's just
I'm working and I'm busy, and I will transfer it.
I just didn't realize it was such a big deal
for her.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
It is one huge deal with me. Now you know
I'm struggling.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Do you see well, it sounds like you might not.
And I think what you're missing is maybe because you
have money, it's kind of feeling disrespectful from Sally's side
of things. You know, she says she's trying to do
it all. She's gone, the kids and everything else, and yeah,
it just means, you know, she might expect a little
bit more from somebody who calls her a friend.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Well, I'm sorry that she feels that way. I just
you know, after fifteen years, would have thought she'd known
that I'm good for the.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Money when not eat a pick sides. We just would
love you to pay the money back and you guys
can go back to be friends again.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Well just on that sale. If val does pay the
money back, like I would vowl it as soon as
you hang up from usket on the If she does
do that, Sally, is that going to be good enough
or you pretty much? I mean it sounded like you're
done anyway.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Where I'm at right now, I would just like her
to repay me and then give it a bit of
a break and see how we go. And then maybe
next time we catch up, I might get a cup
of tea with a fresh tea bag, or she might
shout me a coffee or some lunch.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Oh sure, sure, all right, Well we'll put you guys
on hold there and then you guys can continue that
conversation and then yeah, maybe the first step will be
getting that t swift ticket money back to you Sally's
straight away.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Thank you, I'd appreciate that. Thank you so much, Maxinelli
