People condemned this aunt’s tantrum over being asked to pay postage for free books

School books aren’t cheap, so if family or friends can share, it’s a real money saver, which is why people have been so shocked by the reaction of this aunt who became seriously abusive when asked to pay the shipping costs of free books.

This is how the conversation panned out.

That escalated quickly.

Her tantrum didn’t go down well with Reddit users.

Her options were really either pay 10$ to ship or pay full price for the textbooks. She chose third option of paying full price AND being the family embarrassment

Call it drastic, but I would never speak to this person again. I’m approaching my 30’s and have developed a zero bullshit policy. I simply don’t have the time or energy to concern myself with twats, family or otherwise.

The only response I could muster to said “you said free” would just be “lol fuck off.” OP was way nicer than most people would be.

Ah yes. In her world, family is supposed to do whatever she wants, but it is only a one way street. Imagine if the positions were reversed. We’d all go deaf from her screeching indignation.

I love how she jumps straight to “fuck you.” Stay classy, auntie.

Someone named u/dxiao had a suggestion:

Post that shit on your Facebook, tag your cousins, your parents, her parents and their fucking dog.

She should do that now. You know what they say …Carpe diem.
