[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 81139, member: 3626"] People seem to have forgotten that "tips" means To Insure Prompt Service -- wished it was to insure good service but guess we can't have it all. If I had to pay $65 for maid service and then still have to clean up, I can't imagine leaving a tip. If she had done something extraordinary for me while I was there, I would tip for that but I'd probably tip at the time the service was done. As to the manicurist, I think I would have told him to forget it, I didn't need any change and just left without tipping. $5.00 is a more than adequate tip. I really dislike people hinting they deserve more than I think they do. Truth be told, I'm one of those people who will deliberately leave a nominal amount if I am displeased with the service. By nominal, I mean no more than 25 cents -- just enough to leave a message that I didn't forget to tip, I just wasn't willing to tip for bad service. I've actually gone out of my way to tip the busboy and leave nothing for the waiter if the service was poor. [/QUOTE]
