Is it ok to ask birthday party guests to pay a little for food?

My daughter is turning 2 next month and we're having a home birthday party. We are renting a bouncy house which is going to cost us $100.00 which leaves very little for the rest. I'd like to order a pizza for every 3 guests, which would come out to about 8 pizzas. That would cost about $50-$60. Do you think it would be ok to ask guests to contibute a couple dollars towards the food? How would I word that in the invitation?

Answer
Personally, I think it's tacky. You're payiing $100 for a bouncy house that really isn't necessary for a 2 yr old's party. I would take offense to being asked to contribute to the food.

What should I get for an 8 year olds birthday?

My daughter received an invitation to a birthday party from a boy in her class. I have no idea what is cool for an 8 year old boy. I'm used to girls. What's something I can pick up at Wal-Mart that's no more than $15.

Answer
gift card, i hate buying for children or indeed people that I don't know well, let them choose :)
