Organized + booked an Airbnb for a Bach trip and got refunded for it, but told no one
"This was a few years ago. I’m no longer friends with the bride, but I was her MOH. One thing I took care of as a broke, basically unemployed full-time student was booking the Airbnb for the group, which went as expected with nearly 13 girls."

“Before leaving for our trip, I had a video on my FYP on TikTok of someone who booked an Airbnb that was able to get a full refund for undisclosed security cameras, as it is against Airbnb’s policy to not disclose even a Ring doorbell. I stored this knowledge in my brain to myself for our trip and went on.”
-
“The trip came, and we got to our Airbnb, which was decent, but they did leave a pile of what I will assume were dirty towels and an undisclosed Ring doorbell. Under the Airbnb listings amenities, it specifically had an ‘X’ under security cameras, meaning it was not equipped with them. The Airbnb owner is one of those companies that buy up tons of properties and use them as STR, so I did not feel bad when I reached out to Airbnb after the trip, mentioning that they had undisclosed cameras on the property and, per their policy, would entitle me to a full refund.”
-
“I expected some type of pushback from Airbnb, but I was given a full refund (2k+), and I never told a SOUL (besides now lol). I considered it my payment for organizing the entire thing myself because gosh, is it hard coordinating a trip with almost 12 girls!”

You might agree with what she did, and you might not, but have you ever been in this position before? Where you are so broke you wonder if you're going to be able to afford next month's rent and then that friend springs on you the expensive bachelorette party? NO? Then, sorry, you really don't have experience in this situation, so you just don't get it… We applaud this girl's behavior and boo all her friends.

The whole bachelor/bachelorette industrial complex is completely out of hand. It used to be one night of revelry, and that’s it. Now bridesmaids are expected to pay $1k plus BEFORE factoring in travel to the wedding. Don’t subject your friends to it just because they did it to you. Don’t ask your non-generational wealth friends to max their cc to be your friend. Good for you for getting your unpaid labor paid

No judgement. Pretty genius, I think.

If you organized the ENTIRE trip for 13 girls, then yes, absolutely, girl, you earned it. idk if I could personally do that lol bc I’d kinda feel like I’m stealing from my friends (vs I’ve done similar things to steal from corporations). Also, the Ring cameras are 100% used to spy on you, so I’m glad the Airbnb company learned its lesson.

Lowkey shady but also kinda on the host for not disclosing it, you just played the system better than they did. Wouldn’t brag about it, but I get why you justified it at the time

No judgement. Weddings and hen nights are a nightmare when you’re expected to do a ton of admin. It’s like a second job for the MOH. I respect you for doing this imo. GOOD FOR YOU!!!
