Suggestion: You need more than a weekly meeting. Maybe the sorority should set up committees which meet in between chapter meetings in order to hammer out the details and bring the results to the chapter. When you make a decision at a meeting, you as a sorority need to stick with it. When it comes to issues of money, you need to prioritize and make a budget. Figure out your expenses and collect dues. Make it clear that unless the sorority approves the expense at a meeting, a sister will not be reimbursed if she spends money on her own. That will stop sisters from spending money like crazy. It's amazing how much a budget can help. You should ask Mary if her sorority's treasurer can give you suggestions for dues and budgets. I think that your problems are due to a lack of organization. Good luck!
BTW, we got our flyers for rush and other events at Staples and our campus copier. We told them the number that we needed and they had a price listing. Yes, you get a discount for bulk, but it's wasted if there are too many flyers. We never made over 500 copies and we managed to plaster a campus of over 10,000 students.
