A woman posted on a discussion board that her mother-in-law is charging guests for Christmas lunch.

User Staceyjas wrote on Mumsnet that her partner will be going to his mom's for the holiday while she will be with her own family. However, she was surprised to find out his mother is asking that everyone pay $21 to cover the cost of the food.
