As one of those people, if someone told me it was my shout I'd kindly tell them to f*** off. So to answer your question, no.

absolutely!

how about times when you're out for lunch or a dinner and there's bottles of wine and other alcoholic beverages consumed, and when the bill comes people go "it'll be $50 each"

split bill

 

[Catfish Alley]

Nope. It’s easy enough for servers to do individual bills.

 

[PoppedCorn]

Non drinker.. well very very little and certainly dont buy it as i work in the industry and dont have to pay for it but i wouldnt expect to be included in a round shout to buy everyone one
And if i was the one driving everyone home id expect the drinkers to be feeding me non alcoholic stuff for free all night

It's customary in my circle of friends that if someone is driving us, they don't pay for a drink (be it a couple of beers or softy). Non drinkers shouldn't be paying for others booze unless they want to shout.

A few years ago I went to a function at a winery in South Gippsland, about a half hour drive. Another person who was going asked for a lift as I wasn't drinking. At the winery he bought a bottle and asked me if I wanted a glass. I said I was driving. He said "Oh just one glass" so I did. About an hour later he came up to me and said, "Must be your turn to buy a bottle". I couldn't be bothered arguing so I did and gave it to him. He didn't offer me any and didn't offer any money for petrol, an hour's round trip.

Nice friend.

Nope. I thought I'd better take him home after he got up and serenaded badly the people at the function with Old Man River.
