Wow. Assuming you're NPC - it sounds like the chapter could use a review of national policies. I see a couple of weird things here. I don't know what every NPC group's policies are, but they tend to be similar.

1) Aren't you required to have exec meetings pretty much all weeks school is in session and there isn't a holiday? I don't think the Super Bowl counts.

2) There is almost always a campus Panhel rush budget to stay within, as 33girl said. And if you're going to blow it, I wouldn't think flyers would be the way to do it.

3) Generally an officeholder is NOT entitled to make lots of financial decisions just because it's her area. Depending on your system, there may be a recuitment council that needs to vet it, or exec needs to vote on major expenditures. After all, if she decided, "I think it would help rush if I spent the entire chapter income on sweaters for me," there would need to be some way for the chapter to stop her!

Now you probably don't want to be the one who runs to Nationals and says, "Houston, we have a problem." I would start by taking a look at your national and local bylaws on your own time. And if for example you see a rule requiring chapter input on expenditures, mention in privately to the recruitment chair.
