My Husband Tossed Me $50 for Christmas Dinner — Wait Until You Hear How I Got the Last Laugh!
|When my husband threw a crumpled $50 bill on the counter and told me to “make a lavish Christmas dinner,” I had two choices: feel hurt or teach him a lesson. I chose the second option.
Every year, Greg insists on hosting Christmas for his family, but this time, he pushed me too far. After dismissing my carefully planned ideas with just $50, I decided it was time for payback. Instead of getting upset, I came up with a plan that would leave him stunned.
I secretly hired a catering service, used my own savings, and organized the most extravagant Christmas dinner I could imagine. Greg had no clue. He thought I was struggling to make everything work with his measly $50.
On Christmas Day, the house was transformed into a holiday dream. The table was set with gorgeous decorations, and the food looked like it belonged in a five-star restaurant. His family was blown away by the lavish spread, and Greg kept bragging about my “creativity” and “resourcefulness.”
Then came the moment of truth. After dessert, I stood up and thanked Greg for his “generous contribution” of $50. I then revealed the actual cost of the dinner: $750. His face turned bright red as I explained how he had underestimated me and dismissed my efforts.
To finish things off, I handed him a receipt for a spa weekend I had booked for myself as a reward for pulling off such an amazing dinner. Greg was left speechless.
For the rest of the night, he scrubbed dishes while I sat back and savored my well-earned victory.
