Engagement Party faux pas.

Logic fail? Not sure how this is a Logic Fail when guests put money in the jar. One would deduce that if guests were offended or that they already gave a gift then they wouldn't have put money in the jar or would have said something. We are all a pretty open and direct group of people. No one said anything.

Again it's a matter of opinion. I'm from Eastern PA and I've seen this in Jersey, Western PA and Ohio...it could be our location.

I live in Western PA and have never seen a jar for money at an engagement party or bridal shower.  I have also never been to a wedding with a Dollar Dance.  I would side-eye both and not participate.

I don't think it has anything to do with location, I think it is an individual thing.

Born and raised in NEPA, spent 15 years living in Philadelphia and now live in NJ.

Never ONCE have I seen anything like this nor would anyone I know consider it "acceptable"

It is tacky and rude.
