Umm, does this girl want me to ask her out to dinner?

O.K. so I'm a graduate assistant at the computer help desk for my grad program. Last week this girl comes in and asks if we can help her with her 'puter. It is totally fvcked by a virus and I call her up and tell her that if she doesn't have vital data on the drive that we should just use the recovery partition to reformat it and start off with a clean slate. I left that for a girl on the next shift. Well, I find a note from last week this afternoon with $30 in it. The note reads:
Preslove,

I just wanted to say thank you sooo much for fixing my computer! And thank you for doing it so fast! 🙂 I really appreciate your help, time, and generosity, and although it's not much, I wanted you to be able to go get something (dinner?) for yourself. Thank you so much again!!
<3 <3 always,
(girl's name) x0x0x

P.S. -If you know somewhere in Tally where I could get a Mac [she asked what kind of laptop she should get and I told her to get a macbook] - they don't have them @ Best Buy - Would you let me know?
Thank you!!!
(gives her email address)

So, is this a weird way of telling me to ask her out? I don't think the money is that much to her, because she said "money's no object" when asking about getting a laptop. So, should I email her and thank her and say "I really wouldn't be comfortable using the money why don't we get dinner together?" Is this too crazy for me to be interested?

😕
 
Doesn't seem like a date invitation to me. Just answer her email, see if she keeps writing. That will answer the question eventually. (Or she will just keep your email address for the next time she has computer problems.)
 
She's looking for cheap computer repair. I say pimp yourself(IT skills) out for sex. Well actually.... I say this: TTIWWP.
 
From her note it doesn't look like she is trying to drop any hints, but you could still email her with something like, "why don't I use this $30 to take you out to dinner" or something witty along those lines and see what happens.
 
She is saying she wants to do something nice for you like have you get dinner for yourself. I don't know how that would work out unless she reimburse you after you went to eat alone. I did not read it as she wanted you to ask her out.
 
I say get her number and talk to her on the phone or in person. That way you can truly gauge her interests better. Some girls leave hearts, hugs and kisses in notes to cuddle bitch candidates.
Be confident, touch her and find out if she will let you into her personal space...then go for it!

I disagree, I see how it could be intrepreted that way. I mean, who leaves $30 for a guy when he is simply doing his job? I guess there are people like that, and in that sense I am right with the OP. I wouldn't know which way to take it, it could go either way.

That isn't any help to you (OP) but I see how your thinking
 
I must have missed something but where in that note does it say or hint that she's asking you out? From the way it sounds, she is thankful that you fixed her computer and gave you $30 to buy dinner. It was a nice gesture on her part. I think you're reading too much in between the lines.
 
If there was ever a big huge "ask me out, moron" move. This is it. You need to ask her out. She's practically begging for it.
 
Tell me what would you rate this girl on a scale of 1-10. 1 being Rosie O'Donnel, 10 being your mom.

Then i will give you my advice.
 
She's at least feeling very warm and fuzzy towards you, so it's not a bad time to drop by her desk sometime after work and ask if she wants to join you and whoever else you hang out with at work for a drink at the local bar. Give your friends a short briefing on the sitch and use them to relax the atmosphere while you spend some quality talking time together.
