📝 AITA for telling off my friend for using 4 Band-Aids?

I am an only child and haven't had to know a lot about sharing. Just today, my close friend came over for a school project. She said she had a papercut from the day before, and she asked for a Band-Aid. I looked at it and it looked almost healed, no blood, superficial cut. But I got one for her anyway. No biggie.

10 minutes later she asked for another one. I was confused because she was talking about the same cut. Apparently she just peeled it off and then found out that it hurt. So I got her another one, but accidentally took 2 out of the box. So I gave her one and told her that if she needed another one, I'd put the other one on the table.

An hour later she asked for a fourth one. I was extremely confused since I'd given her three bandaids for the same cut, which again, isn't bad at all. I was frustrated because she couldn't keep it on. I'm not frugal and I didn't care about the money, but I just hated that took FOUR bandaids. So I told her off a little, asking if she could let it air-dry since it didn't seem that bad, or why she needed ANOTHER one. It was a little awkward before she asked again and I got it for her.

Am I the asshole for not knowing how to share or is she?
