Depends what you're going for. If it's dinner drinks etc than contribute. If you're just watching the footy/gaming/catch up probably no need

Wine or chocolate are the best go to options as someone will eat/drink.
Bit like getting someone a voucher when in doubt.
Got a friend who I see maybe twice a year. Every time she cones she brings treats or toys for the dog.
And **** all for you?
Usually 2-3 things for the dog and 1 for the humans.

Always
Of course
Yeah this would be usual. Though I find these days it's easy for blokes to say they have no cash, or ask you to use your Uber Eats account and they'll pay you later. Same for people who claim not to know how to order an Uber.

Yes but as I do not ever carry a cent on me unless I know I will need it, if said mate wants cash then I would be wanting prior notice.

The lack of cash is a pain. If you're ordering in, one person is going to have to put it on their credit card or Uber Eats account. I'm not a fan of transferring cash to bank accounts, I'd rather square up next time. But the bigger the group, the harder that is. If it was two or three friends round mine, I'd just pay for it myself.

I would not be anywhere where dinner plans are so blase.
Also, that depends if it is dominos!

Im not friends with people who order Dominos so Im ok
Yep. Instant bank transfer using payID would be used so you can see it came in before if let people eat!

I use Beem It for quick bank transfers, but most big banks use Osko now anyway. No excuse to not be able to pay people back these days (assuming you have some money to your name).
I'm the same. Literally don't carry cash and if a pizza scenario like the above arises, I just transfer on the spot.
Yes, actually I volunteer to pay the whole thing on my credit card for points and people can pay me

Places should just split bills. There is no reason not to outside of laziness.

Yeah im the same - most of the time its the same crew that are hanging out at different people's places. The idea is to chip in but all of a sudden after a few beers everyone forgets and by the next day you realise nobody put in or i forgot to put in if im not hosting. Quick msg saying what do i owe ya and reply is normally dont worry about it (i reply the same if ive been the host). Talking $50-$70 worth of pizza probably so not going to break the bank.
Ill go to my brothers and sometimes he'll talk me into a few beers and that turns into half a slab. I havent taken any beers. Ill just drop around a slab the next time im over. Its not a big deal if you dont have it on the day as it usually evens out
