It’s that time of the year again to pause for a moment and reflect seriously on things. Things like, how much dough to tip the people who provide you with services all year. (KRLD’s got a poll up on tipping today.) So, for sure I know you’re supposed to give housekeepers an amount equal to the cost of one regular visit. But, how much do you tip your haircutter? And, do you still pony up if he or she owns the shop? And what about mail-delivery people and garbage collectors? If you work away from home, how do you get a tip into the garbage folks’ hands? Pinning something to your tied-off Hefty bag probably isn’t smart.
