Question

We bought a gift for my mother as a family. I paid, and everyone reimbursed me. The exact amount each person had to pay me was 68.60 shekels. One paid me 69 shekels, and another paid me 70 shekels. Is there an issue of interest, and am I obligated to return the difference?

Answer

Hello 

You should inform the family that there is a balance, and whoever wants it can receive it. For those who do not want it, their balance will be considered as compensation for the organization you did for them.
