Money Spent

October 16th, 2011 at 03:34 am

DH ended up spending the entire $40 I sent with him. Only $28 of that was on food. The other $12 was so he and DD could get into the tournament. They did not tell us, either in person, or in the paperwork that there was a fee to get in to the tournament for non-participants. I was really annoyed about that, because what if I hadn't sent any cash down with them at all?

Anyway, DS placed second in his division and got a silver medal. I am so proud of him. It's a pretty medal, too. I've seen the vid and he did such a good job. The kid who got gold beat him by only .1 of a point. Pretty darn good for a first tournament.

    Congratulations to your son! That is awesome. I hate it when they don't tell you there is a fee to get in. DD had a non league soccer game at the beginning of Sept across town and DH and I had to pay $6.00 each to get in. You are never charged for soccer games except for the state play off games. Since this school is not in our conference, we had no idea. It was lucky I had my checkbook because they didn't take debit cards and we had no cash on us. We were not happy campers to say the least!

    That's definitely something they should tell you upfront. Good thing they have the cash!
