Confused Problem With A Friend

Please, you be the judge: A friend and I ordered some rose plants from a nursery. We often order things together so we can split the shipping....much cheaper that way. Well, she was able to get a 10% discount on our order. The discount was applied to the whole order and now instead of sharing the discount she wants me to pay her what I would have saved. I told her to just have half of the discount removed if she didn't want to share it. I was hurt that she would expect me to pay her for something that doesn't cost her anything. I also told her that if it was me who was able to get the discount, I would have happily shared it with her...sounds like what friends would do to me. Anyway, now she's upset that I don't think I should pay her and has decided to cancel her half of the order. She has been a dear friend for years and I was surprised and hurt that she expects compensation. Do you think it's fair that I should pay her for what I would save with the discount?
