So really up to you to see how this game is played. If you dont mind, just go with the flow

The thing about buying makan, I feel the golden rule is IF you have ANY expectations as to how the ML SHOULD react, then best not do it at all, be it we asked her or she tasked us to help buy. If you gonna/willing to do it, just treat it as a humane act of kindness and be satisfied with a simple THANK YOU.
Honestly speaking even if we buy a restaurant takeaway also at most $20, is really small change compared to her per hour earnings, some ML more open to impose on the customer to help, some more greedy want crab or sashimi, while others strictly decline even if asked if they wan food coz they worry baggage associated with this favor rendered. Hence if we start to expect a certain level of gratitude in return then best not to do it at all. No expectations = no disappointments. And frankly not entirely fair to judge a ML based on how she react to such simple acts too.
