She did not think that Gina had expected to be reimbursed for these extra charges, such as staying at nicer hotels with swimming pools and going out to fancy restaurants once in a while. In the end, Gina spent $1,500 and Liz spent $800. However, they did not keep good records of who spent what, although the gas and car expenses were shared equally.
