Thanks, deadrat, but I would prefer, if possible, that the answer doesn't contain the words 'I don't have the money'. Of course, this is the real motive, but in this case the speaker doesn't want to confess that he is broke. He wants to say only that he dislikes the fact of receiving the item without paying for it. Is it possible to rephrase the sentence?
