There are sippy cups down at the Dollar Tree for $1.00! Who pays more than $10.00 for a sippy cup???
The $10 was probably to pay for the cup and for the inconvenience and imposition of having to buy another. That’s pretty reasonable. That should have been the end of it in a sane world.
If it were me, I’d have refused the money with many thanks for the apology and offer. Then I’d go buy myself a new sippy cup for my kid.
I swear, there are people that _live_ to be offended these days. That type wants a payout to go with the apology on that rare, fine day. And $10 is not enough to stop their righteous fists of fury.
Someone who doesn't want to get their face smashed?
