Holiday Tipping

ponyboy · 12-21-2004, 01:12 PM

I have head conflicting reports from people about whether or not they tip their personal trainer at Christmas time. I have heard plenty of people say that they tip their mailman, hairdresser, masseuse, chiropractor - not a big thing, but usually a little something extra at holiday time for the services that they provide. I bought my chiro something, but we have a good professional relationship referring clients back and forth. I do not tip the person who cuts my hair because I only see them 6x a year and I tip well at those times.

Last year I got about 3 bottles of wine...but my client list was not nearly as large (or wealthy). I currently have about 8-10 regular clients I see 1-3x per week and take very good care of. I've gotten them all small gifts for Christmas and I'm wondering if I should expect anything in return.

Do you tip service people for the holidays? If so, why - and if not, why not?

	Today I can do what others will not so that tomorrow I will do what others cannot. The difference between winners and losers is that winners do things that losers don't want to do.
