Cohousing-L Mailing List: Common house meal prices

[PatZy (pzboom]

Here at Mtn View coho, we tally up meals and bill/reimburse quarterly.  At the 
time we tally up, we see what the average cost was and bump it up just a bit to 
cover future celebrations or whatever.  We’ve promised that the charge will 
never be over $7 but in actuality the charge is usually somewhere around $6, 
give or take .50.  So, it’s not a set charge but based on the actual cost of 
the meals that quarter.  Easier for cooks not to have to stress if they’re a 
tad over budget because it all works out in the end.
